HMC383LC 4
v05.0514
GaAs PHEMT MMIC MEDIUM
POWER AMPLIFIER, 12 - 30 GHz
General Description
Features
Functional Diagram
The HMC383LC4 is a general purpose GaAs PHEMT
MMIC Driver Amplier housed in a leadless RoHS
compliant SMT package. The amplier provides 15 dB
of gain and +18 dBm of saturated power from a single
+5V supply. Consistent gain and output power across
the operating band make it possible to use a com-
mon driver/LO amplier approach in multiple radio
bands. The RF I/Os are DC blocked and matched to
50 Ohms for ease of use. The HMC383LC4 is housed
in a RoHS compliant leadless 4x4 mm package
allowing the use of surface mount manufacturing
techniques.
Gain: 15 dB
Saturated Output Power: +18 dBm
Output IP3: +25 dBm
Single Positive Supply: +5V @ 100 mA
50 Ohm Matched Input/Output
RoHS Compliant 4x4 mm Package
