HMC462LP5 / 462LP5E v04.1010 AMPLIFIERS - LOW NOISE - SMT 7 GaAs pHEMT MMIC LOW NOISE AMPLIFIER, 2 - 20 GHz Typical Applications Features The HMC462LP5 / HMC462LP5E Wideband LNA is ideal for: Noise Figure: 2.5 dB @ 10 GHz • Telecom Infrastructure P1dB Output Power: +14.5 dBm @ 10 GHz • Microwave Radio & VSAT Self-Biased: +5V @ 66mA • Military EW, ECM & C3I 50 Ohm Matched Input/Output • Test Instrumentation 25 mm2 Leadless SMT Package Gain: 13 dB • Fiber Optics Functional Diagram General Description The HMC462LP5 & HMC462LP5E are GaAs MMIC pHEMT Low Noise Distributed Amplifiers in leadless 5x5 mm surface mount packages which operate between 2 and 20 GHz. The self-biased amplifier provides 13 dB of gain, 2.5 to 3.5 dB noise figure and +14.5 dBm of output power at 1 dB gain compression while requiring only 66 mA from a single +5V supply. Gain flatness is excellent from 6 - 18 GHz making the HMC462LP5 & HMC462LP5E ideal for EW, ECM RADAR and test equipment applications. The wideband amplifier I/Os are internally matched to 50 Ohms and are internally DC blocked. Electrical Specifications, TA = +25° C, Vdd= 5V Parameter Min. Frequency Range Gain Max.

Signal lines should have 50 Ohm impedance while the package ground leads and package bottom 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.
