HMC-C003 v01.1105 WIDEBAND POWER AMPLIFIER MODULE, 2 - 20 GHz AMPLIFIERS - CONNECTORIZED MODULES 9 Features P1dB Output Power: +26 dBm @ 10 GHz Output IP3: +30 dBm Gain: 15 dB 50 Ohm Matched Input/Output Regulated Supply and Bias Sequencing Typical Applications Hermetically Sealed Module The HMC-C003 Wideband PA is ideal for: Field Replaceable SMA connectors • Telecom Infrastructure -55 to +85˚C Operating Temperature • Microwave Radio & VSAT • Military & Space General Description • Test Instrumentation The HMC-C003 is a GaAs MMIC PHEMT Distributed Power Amplifier in a miniature, hermetic module with replaceable SMA connectors which operates between 2 and 20 GHz. The self-biased amplifier provides 15 dB of gain, +30 dBm output IP3 and up to +26 dBm of output power at 1 dB gain compression while requiring a single +12V supply. Gain flatness is excellent from 2 - 18 GHz making the HMC-C003 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. • Fiber Optics Functional Diagram Electrical Specifications, TA = +25° C, Vs= +11.6V to +12.4V Parameter Min.
