Product Details
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 amplifier’s I/Os are DC blocked and internally matched to 50 Ohms making it ideal for integration into Multi-Chip-Modules (MCMs).
Applications
- Point-to-Point Radios
- Point-to-Multi-Point Radios & VSAT
- Military & Space
- LO Driver for Mixers
