General Description
The HMC408LP3 & HMC408LP3E are 5.1 - 5.9 GHz
high efficiency GaAs InGaP Heterojunction Bipolar
Transistor (HBT) Power Amplifier MMICs which offer
+30 dBm P1dB. The amplifier provides 20 dB of gain,
+32.5 dBm of saturated power, and 27% PAE from a
+5V supply voltage. The input is internally matched
to 50 Ohms while the output requires a minimum of
external components. Vpd can be used for full power
down or RF output power/current control. The amplifier
is packaged in a low cost, 3x3 mm leadless surface
mount package with an exposed base for improved
RF and thermal performance.
