General Description
The HMC383 is a general purpose GaAs PHEMT
MMIC Driver Amplifier which operates between 12
and 30 GHz. The amplifier provides 16 dB of gain
and +18 dBm of saturated power from a +5V supply.
Consistent gain and output power across the
operating band make it possible to use a common
driver/LO amplifier approach in multiple radio bands.
The HMC383 amplifier can easily be integrated into
Multi-Chip-Modules (MCMs) due to its compact size,
single supply operation, and DC blocked RF I/Os. All
data is measured with the chip in a 50 Ohm test fix-
ture connected via 0.025mm (1 mil) diameter wire
bonds of minimal length 0.31mm (12 mils).
Electrical Specifications, T_A = +25° C, Vdd = +5V
