General Description
The HMC594LC3B is a GaAs PHEMT MMIC Low
Noise Amplifier (LNA) which operates from 2 to 4
GHz. The HMC594LC3B features extremely flat
performance characteristics including 10 dB of small
signal gain, 3 dB of noise figure and output IP3 of
+36 dBm across the operating band. This high linearity
LNA is ideal for test & measurement equipment
and military assemblies due to its compact size,
consistent output power and DC blocked RF I/O’s.
The HMC594LC3B is also available in chip form as
the HMC594.
