General Description
The HMC463LP5(E) is a GaAs MMIC pHEMT Low
Noise AGC Distributed Amplifier packaged in a lead-
less 5x5 mm surface mount package which oper-
ates between 2 and 20 GHz. The amplifier provides
13 dB of gain, 2.8 dB noise figure and 18 dBm of out-
put power at 1 dB gain compression while requiring
only 60 mA from a +5V supply. An optional gate bias
(Vgg2) is provided to allow Adjustable Gain Control
(AGC) of 8 dB typical. Gain flatness is excellent at
±0.5 dB from 6 - 18 GHz making the HMC463LP5(E)
ideal for EW, ECM RADAR and test equipment appli-
cations. The HMC463LP5(E) LNA I/Os are internally
matched to 50 Ohms and are internally DC blocked.
