HMMC-5618 Datasheet | HP

- 20 GHz Amplifier Technical Data Features - High Efficiency: 11% @ P-1d B Typical - Output Power, P-1d B: 18 d Bm Typical - High Gain: 14 d B Typical - Flat Gain Response: ±0.5 d B Typical - Low Input/Output VSWR: <1.7:1 Typical - Single Supply Bias: 5 volts (@ 115 m A Typical) with Optional Gate Bias Description The HMMC-5618 6- 20 GHz MMIC is an efficient two-stage amplifier that is designed to be used as a cascadable intermediate gain block for EW applications. In munication systems, it can be used as an amplifier for a local oscillator, or as a transmit amplifier. It is fabricated using a PHEMT integrated circuit structure that provides exceptional efficiency and flat gain performance. During typical operation, with a single 5-volt DC power supply, each gain stage is biased for Class-A operation for optimal power output with minimal distortion. The RF input and RF output has matching circuitry for use in 50 ohm environments. The backside of the chip is...
