Functional Diagram
General Description
The HMC441LP3 & HMC441LP3E are broadband
GaAs PHEMT MMIC Medium Power Amplifiers which
operate between 6.5 and 13.5 GHz. The leadless
plastic QFN surface mount packaged amplifier
provides 14 dB of gain, +20 dBm saturated power
at 20% PAE from a +5V supply voltage. An optional
gate bias is provided to allow adjustment of gain,
RF output power, and DC power dissipation. This
50 Ohm matched amplifier does not require any
external components making it an ideal linear gain
block or driver for HMC SMT mixers.
