General Description
The HMC609LC4 is a GaAs PHEMT MMIC Low Noise
Amplifier (LNA) which operates from 2 to 4 GHz. The
HMC609LC4 features extremely flat performance
characteristics including 20 dB of small signal gain, 3.5
dB of noise figure and output IP3 of +36.5 dBm across
the operating band. This 50 Ohm matched amplifier
does not require any external matching components.
The HMC609LC4 is compatible with high volume
surface mount manufacturing techniques, and the RF
I/Os are DC blocked for further ease of integration.
Electrical Specifications, TA = +25° C, Vdd1 = Vdd2 = +6V, Idd1 + Idd2 = 170 mA [1]

The circuit board used in the 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 board should be mounted to an appropriate heat sink. The evaluation circuit board shown
is available from Hittite upon request.
