Product Details
The HMC952ALP5GE is a four-stage GaAs pHEMT MMIC Medium Power Amplifier with a temperature compensated on-chip power detector which operates between 8 and 14 GHz. The amplifier provides 32 dB of gain and +34.5 dBm of saturated output power at 26% PAE from a +6V supply. With up to +43 dBm IP3 the HMC952ALP5GE is ideal for linear applications such as point-to-point and point-to-multipoint radios or SATCOM applications demanding +34.5dBm of efficient saturated output power. The RF I/Os are internally matched to 50 Ohms.
Applications
- Point-to-point radios
- Point-to-multi-point radios
- SATCO
