GaAs MMIC LOW NOISE
AMPLIFIER, 24 - 36 GHz
Features
Excellent Noise Figure: 2 dB
Gain: 22 dB
Single Supply : +3V @ 58 mA
Small Size: 2.48 x 1.33 x 0.1 mm
General Description
The HMC263 chip is a GaAs MMIC Low Noise
Amplifier (LNA) which covers the frequency range of
24 to 36 GHz. The chip can easily be integrated into
Multi-Chip Modules (MCMs) due to its small (3.29
mm2) size. The chip utilizes a GaAs PHEMT process
offering 22 dB gain from a single bias supply of + 3V
@ 58 mA with a noise figure of 2.0 dB. All data is with
the chip in a 50 ohm test fixture connected via 0.076
mm (3 mil) diameter ribbon bonds of minimal length
0.31 mm (<12 mils). The HMC263 may be used in
conjunction with HMC264 or HMC265 mixers to real-
ize a millimeterwave system receiver.
