Typical Applications
This HMC-ALH244 is ideal for:
• Point-to-Point Radios
• Point-to-Multi-Point Radios
• VSAT
• SATCOM
The HMC-ALH244 is a two stage GaAs MMIC HEMT
Low Noise Ampli er die which operates between
24 and 40 GHz. The ampli er provides 12 dB of gain,
a noise gure of 3.5 dB, and requires only 45 mA
from a +4V supply voltage. The HMC-ALH244 ampli er
die is ideal for integration into Multi-Chip-Modules
(MCMs) due to its small size (3.5 mm).
