General Description
The HMC406MS8G(E) is a high efficiency GaAs
InGaP Heterojunction Bipolar Transistor (HBT) MMIC
Power amplifier which operates between 5 and 6
GHz. The amplifier is packaged in a low cost, surface
mount 8 leaded package with an exposed base
for improved RF and thermal performance. With
a minimum of external components, the amplifier
provides 17 dB of gain and +29 dBm of saturated
power at 38% PAE from a +5V supply voltage. Vpd
can be used for full power down or RF output power/
current control.
Electrical Specifi cations, TA = +25° C, Vs = 5V, Vpd = 5V

Interface Schematic
1
Vpd
Power Control Pin. For maximum power, this pin should be
connected to 5V. A higher voltage is not recommended. For
lower idle current, this voltage can be reduced.
2, 4, 7
GND
Ground: Backside of package has exposed metal ground
slug that must be connected to ground thru a short path.
Vias under the device are required.
3
RFIN
This pin is AC coupled
and matched to 50 Ohms.
5, 6
RFOUT
RF output and bias for the output stage. The power supply
for the output device needs to be supplied to these pins.
Vcc
Power supply voltage for the first amplifier stage. An
external bypass capacitor of 330 pF is required. This
capacitor should be placed as close to the devices as
possible.

105021 Eval Board
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.
