General Description
The HMC342LC4 is a GaAs PHEMT MMIC Low
Noise Amplifier housed in a leadless 4x4 mm RoHS
compliant SMT package. Operating from 13 to 25
GHz, the amplifier provides 22 dB of gain and +19
dBm of output IP3 from a single +3V supply. The
low noise figure performance of 3.5 dB is ideal for
receive and transmit pre-driver applications. The RF
I/Os are DC blocked and matched to 50 Ohms for
ease of use. The HMC342LC4 allows the use of
surface mount manufacturing techniques and requires
no external matching components.
