Product Details
The HMC906A is a four stage GaAs pHEM T MMIC 2 Watt Power Amplifier which operates between 27.3 and 33.5 GHz. The HMC906A provides 26.5 dB of gain, and +33.5 dBm of saturated output power and 20% PAE from a +6V supply. The OIP 3 of 40 dBm at 28 dBm / tone provides excellent linearity for satellite communications. The RF I/Os are DC blocked and matched to 50 Ohms for ease of integration into Multi-Chip-Modules (MCMs). All data is taken with the chip in a 50 Ohm test fixture connected via two 0.025 mm (1 mil) diameter wire bonds of length 0.31 mm (12 mils).

Tools & Simulations
Sys-Parameters
Sys-Parameter models contain behavioral parameters, such as P1dB, IP3, gain, noise figure and return loss, which describe nonlinear and linear characteristics of a device.
S-Parameters
Design Tools
ADIsimRF is an easy-to-use RF signal chain calculator. Cascaded gain, noise, distortion and power consumption can be calculated, plotted and exported for signal chains with up to 50 stages. ADIsimRF also includes an extensive data base of device models for ADI’s RF and mixed signal components.
Design Resources
ADI has always placed the highest emphasis on delivering products that meet the maximum levels of quality and reliability. We achieve this by incorporating quality and reliability checks in every scope of product and process design, and in the manufacturing process as well. "Zero defects" for shipped products is always our goal.View our quality and reliability program and certifications for more information.
