GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The HMC8402 is a gallium arsenide (GaAs), pseudomorphic
high electron mobility transistor (pHEMT), monolithic microwave
integrated circuit (MMIC), low noise amplifier which operates
between 2 GHz and 30 GHz. The amplifier provides 13.5 dB of
gain, 2 dB noise figure, 26 dBm output IP3, and 21.5 dBm of
output power at 1 dB gain compression while requiring 68 mA
from a 7 V supply. The HMC8402 is self biased with only a single
positive supply needed to achieve a drain current I
DQ
of 68 mA.
The HMC8402 amplifier input/outputs are internally matched to
50 Ω facilitating integration into multichip modules (MCMs). All
data is taken with the chip connected via two 0.025 mm (1 mil)
wire bonds of minimal length 0.31 mm (12 mils).
