General Description
The HMC1029 is a four stage GaAs pHEMT MMIC
2 Watt Power Amplifier which operates between 29
and 37 GHz. The HMC1029 provides 24 dB of gain,
+35 dBm of saturated output power, and 25% PAE
from a +6V power supply. The HMC1029 exhibits
excellent linearity and is optimized for high capacity
point-to-point and point-to-multi-point radio systems.
The amplifier configuration and high gain make it an
excellent candidate for last stage signal amplification
before the antenna. All data is taken with the chip in a
50 Ohm test fixture connected via (2) 0.025 mm (1 mil)
diameter wire bonds of 0.31 mm (12 mil) length.
