General Description
The HMC969 is a 4 stage GaAs pHEMT MMIC 1 Watt
Power Amplifier which operates between 40 and 43.5
GHz. The HMC969 provides 22 dB of gain, +31 dBm
of saturated output power, and 15% PAE from a +6V
supply. With a very good IP3 of 38 dBm, the HMC969
is ideal for linear applications including military and
space as well as point-to-point and point-to-multi-point
radios. All data is taken with the chip in a 50 Ohm test
fixture connected via (2) 0.025 mm (1 mil) diameter
wire bonds of 0.31 mm (12 mil) length.
