General Description
Features
Functional Diagram
The HMC480ST89 & HMC480ST89E are InGaP HBT
Gain Block MMIC SMT ampli ers covering DC to
5 GHz and packaged in an industry standard
SOT89. The ampli er can be used as a cascadable
50 Ohm RF/IF gain stage as well as a LO or PA driver
with up to +20 dBm P1dB output power for cellular/3G,
FWA, CATV, microwave radio and test equipment
applications. The HMC480ST89(E) offers 19 dB
of gain with a +34 dBm output IP3 at 1 GHz while
requiring only 82 mA from a single positive supply.
The HMC480ST89(E) InGaP gain blocks offer
excellent output IP3 and at +19 to +20dBm output
power performance through 5 GHz compared to
equivalent SiGe based products.
P1dB Output Power: +19 dBm to 2.5 GHz
Gain: 19 dB @ 1 GHz
16 dB @ 2 GHz
+34 dBm Output IP3
Single Supply: +6V to +8V
Industry Standard SOT89 Package
Included in the HMC-DK001 Designer’s Kits
