General Description
The HMC283 chip is a four stage GaAs MMIC Medium
Power Amplifier (MPA) which covers the frequency
range of 17 to 40 GHz. The chip can easily be inte-
grated into Multi-Chip Modules (MCMs) due to its
small size. The chip utilizes a GaAs PHEMT process
offering 21 dB gain and +21 dBm output power from a
bias supply of +3.5V @ 300 mA. The HMC283 may
be used as a frequency doubler. A B.I.T. (Built-In-Test)
pad (Vdet) allows monitoring microwave output power.
All data is with the chip in a 50 ohm test fixture con-
nected via 0.076 x 0.0127mm (3mil x 0.5mil) ribbon
bonds of minimal length 0.31mm (<12mils).
