The HMC463LH250 is a GaAs MMIC pHEMT Low Noise AGC Distributed Amplifier packaged in a hermetic surface mount package which operates between 2 and 20 GHz. The amplifier provides 13 dB of gain, 3 dB noise figure and 18 dBm of output power at 1 dB gain compression while requiring only 60 mA from a +5V supply. An optional gate bias (Vgg2) is provided to allow Adjustable Gain Control (AGC) of 8 dB typical. Gain flatness is excellent at ±0.5 dB from 2 - 14 GHz making the HMC463LH250 ideal for EW, ECM RADAR, test equipment and High-Reliability applications. The HMC463LH250 LNA I/Os are internally matched to 50 Ohms and are internally DC blocked.
