Functional Diagram
General Description
The HMC320MS8G & HMC320MS8GE are low cost
C-band fixed gain Low Noise Amplifiers (LNA). The
HMC320MS8G & HMC320MS8GE operate using a
single positive supply that can be set between +3V
and +5V. With +3V bias, the LNA provides a noise
figure of 2.5 dB, 1 dB gain and better than 10 dB
return loss across the UNII band. The HMC320MS8G
& HMC320MS8GE also feature an adaptive baising
that allows the user to select the optimal P1dB
performance for their system using an external set
resistor on the “RES” pin. P1dB performance can
be set between a range of +1 dBm to +13 dBm. The
low cost LNA uses an 8-leaded MSOP ground base
surface mount plastic package, which occupies less
than 14.8 mm2.

Optimizing P1dB Performance
The bias level may be changed to adjust the P1dB and return loss performance. The table below contains the HMC320MS8G RF performance as a function of various VSET and RBIAS settings. It will be necessary for the VSET
voltage source to provide 100uA of current to the amplifier. The Idd and Vdd quiescent performance will not change
as a function of changing the VSET voltage.

Applying the adaptive biasing
A dynamically controlled bias can be implemented with this design. A typical application wil include sensing an RF signal level and then adjusting the VSET. The bias adjustment can be accomplished by either
analog or digitals means, after the RF signal has been detected and translated to a DC voltage using
external power detection circuitry.

The circuit board used in the final application should
use RF circuit design techniques. Signal lines should
have 50 ohm impedance while the package ground
leads and exposed paddle should be connected
directly to the ground plane similar to that shown.
A sufficient number of via holes should be used to
connect the top and bottom ground planes. The
evaluation circuit board shown is available from
Hittite upon request.
