GaAs InGaP HBT 1 WATT
POWER AMPLIFIER, 3.3 - 3.8 GHz
Typical Applications
Features
This amplifier is ideal for use as a power
amplifier for 3.3 - 3.8 GHz applications:
Gain: 31 dB
• WiMAX 802.16
2% EVM @ Pout = +22 dBm
40% PAE @ +32.5 dBm pout
• Fixed Wireless Access

General Description
The HMC409LP4 & HMC409LP4E are high efficiency
GaAs InGaP HBT MMIC Power amplifiers operating
from 3.3 to 3.8 GHz. The amplifier is packaged in a
low cost, leadless SMT package. Utilizing a minimum
of external components the amplifier provides 31 dB
of gain and +32.5 dBm of saturated power from a
+5V supply voltage. The power control (Vpd) can be
used for full power down or RF output power/current
control. For +22 dBm OFDM output power (64 QAM,
54 Mbps), the HMC409LP4 & HMC409LP4E achieve
an error vector magnitude (EVM) of 2%, meeting
WiMAX 802.16 linearity requirements.

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.
