HMC441LC3B
v08.1017 AMPLIFIERS -LINEAR & POWER -SMT GaAs pHEMT MMIC MEDIUM
POWER AMPLIFIER, 6 -18 GHz
Typical Applications Features The HMC441LC3B is ideal for use as a medium power
amplifier for: Gain: 14 dB • Point-to-Point Radios Single Positive Supply: +5V @ 90 mA • Point-to-Multi-Point Radios & VSAT 50 Ohm Matched Input/Output • LO Driver for HMC Mixers 12 Lead Ceramic 3x3mm SMT Package: 9mm2 Saturated Output Power: +21.5 dBm @ 27% PAE • Military EW & ECM Functional Diagram General Description
The HMC441LC3B is an efficient GaAs PHEMT
MMIC Medium Power Amplifier housed in a leadless
RoHS compliant SMT package. Operating between
6 and 18 GHz, the amplifier provides 14 dB of gain,
+21.5 dBm of saturated power and 27% PAE from
a +5V supply. This 50 Ohm matched amplifier does
not require any external components and operates
from a single positive supply, making it an ideal
linear gain block or driver for HMC SMT mixers. The
HMC441LC3B is compatible with high volume surface
mount manufacturing techniques, and the I/Os are
DC blocked for further ease of integration. Electrical Specifications, TA = +25° C, Vdd = +5V
