The HMC963LC4 is a self-biased GaAs MMIC Low Noise Amplifier housed in a leadless 4x4 mm ceramic surface mount package. The amplifier operates between 6 and 26.5 GHz, providing 20 dB of small signal gain, 2.5 dB noise figure, and output IP3 of +18 dBm, while requiring only 45 mA from a +3.5 V supply. The P1dB output power of +10 dBm enables the LNA to function as a LO driver for balanced, I/Q or image reject mixers. The HMC963LC4 also features I/Os that are DC blocked and internally matched to 50 Ohms, making it ideal for high capacity microwave radios and VSAT applications.

Product Detail

The X-Band Development Platform contains one MxFE® software defined, direct RF sampling transceivers, X-Band to C-Band Up/Down Converter, and a X/Ku Band analog phased array proto-typing platform. The target application is phased array radars, electronic warfare, and ground-based SATCOM, specifically a X Band 32 transmit/32 receive channel hybrid beamforming phased array radar.

The X-Band Development Platform highlights a complete system solution. It is intended as a testbed for demonstrating hybrid beamforming phased array radar as well as the implementation of system level calibrations, beamforming algorithms, and other signal processing algorithms. The system is designed to mate with a ZCU102 Evaluation Board from Xilinx®, which features the Zynq® UltraScale+ MPSoC FPGA, with provided reference software, HDL code, and MATLAB system-level interfacing software.

The system can be used to enable quick time-to-market development programs for applications like:

  • ADEF (Phased-Array, RADAR, EW, SATCOM)
  • Hybrid Beamforming
  • Electronic Test and Measurement
