Typical Applications
This HMC-ALH482 is ideal for:
• Wideband Communication Systems
• Surveillance Systems
• Point-to-Point Radios
• Point-to-Multi-Point Radios
• Military & Space
• Test Instrumentation
The HMC-ALH482 is a GaAs MMIC HEMT Low Noise
Wideband Ampli er die which operates between 2
and 22 GHz. The ampli er provides 16 dB of gain, 1.7
dB noise gure up to 12 GHz and +14 dBm of output
power at 1 dB gain compression while requiring only
45 mA from a +4V supply voltage. The HMC-ALH482
ampli er is ideal for integration into Multi-Chip-
Modules (MCMs) due to its small size.
