The amplifier provides 15 dB of gain and +18 dBm of saturated power from a single +5V supply. Consistent gain and output power across the operating band make it possible to use a common driver/LO amplifier approach in multiple radio bands. The RF I/Os are DC blocked and matched to 50 Ohms for ease of use. The HMC383LC4 is housed in a RoHS compliant leadless 4x4 mm package allowing the use of surface mount manufacturing techniques.

[1] The circuit board used in this 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.
