HMC635LC4 v02.0218 GaAs PHEMT MMIC DRIVER AMPLIFIER, 18 - 40 GHz Typical Applications Features 2 The HMC635LC4 is ideal for: Gain: 18.5 dB 2 Point-to-Point Radios P1dB: +22 dBm Point-to-Multi-Point Radios & VSAT Output IP3: +27 dBm 2 LO Driver for Mixers Saturated Power: +23.5 dBm 15% PAE Military & Space Supply Voltage: +5V 280 mA 50 Ohm Matched Input/Output 2 24 Lead Ceramic 4x4mm SMT Package: 16mm Functional Diagram General Description The HMC635LC4 is a GaAs PHEMT MMIC Driver Amplifier die which operates between 18 and 40 GHz. The amplifier provides 18.5 dB of gain, +27 dBm Output IP3, and +22 dBm of output power at 1 dB gain compression, while requiring 280 mA from a +5V supply. Ideal as a driver amplifier for microwave radio applications, or as an LO driver for mixers operating between 18 and 40 GHz, the HMC635LC4 is capable of providing up to +23.5 dBm of saturated output power at 15% PAE. The amplifiers I/Os are DC blocked and internally matched to 50 Ohms making it ideal for integration into Multi-Chip-Modules (MCMs).
