Functional Diagram
General Description
The HMC441LM1 is a broadband 7 to 15.5 GHz GaAs
PHEMT MMIC Medium Power Amplifier in an SMT
leadless chip carrier package. The amplifier provides
15 dB of gain, 21.5 dBm of saturated power at 27%
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.
