The amplifier operates between 5 and 10 GHz, providing 19 dB of small signal gain, 1.8 dB noise figure, and output IP3 of +28 dBm, while requiring only 80 mA from a +3.5V supply. The P1dB output power of +16 dBm enables the LNA to function as a LO driver for balanced, I/Q or image reject mixers. The HMC902LP3E also features I/Os that are DC blocked and internally matched to 50 Ohms, making it ideal for high capacity microwave radios and C-Band VSAT applications.
