HMC392LH5

GaAs MMIC LOW NOISE

AMPLIFIER, 3.5 - 7.0 GHz

v00.0707

General Description

Features

Functional Diagram

The HMC392LH5 is a GaAs MMIC Low Noise

Amplifier packaged in a hermetic surface mount

package which operates between 3.5 and 7 GHz. The

amplifier provides 15.4 dB of gain, 2.5 dB noise figure,

and +24.5 dBm output IP3 from a single+5V supply.

The HMC392LH5 has six biasing options which allow

the user to select the bias point and output power of the

device (+13 to +17 dBm). The HMC392LH5 functions

well as a low noise or driver amplifier and is ideal for

driving the LO port of Hittite mixers. The HMC392LH5

is well suited for high reliability military, industrial and

space applications.

High Gain: 15.4 dB

Low Noise Figure: 2.5 dB

Single Positive Supply: +5V

DC Blocked & 50 Ohm Matched RF I/Os

No External Matching Components Required
