HMC487LP5 / 487LP5E v01.0705 LINEAR & POWER AMPLIFIERS - SMT 11 SURFACE MOUNT PHEMT 2 WATT POWER AMPLIFIER, 9 - 12 GHz Typical Applications Features The HMC487LP5 / HMC487LP5E is ideal for use as a power amplifier for: Saturated Power: +33 dBm @ 20% PAE • Point-to-Point Radios Gain: 20 dB • Point-to-Multi-Point Radios +7V @ 1300 mA Supply • Test Equipment and Sensors 50 Ohm Matched Input/Output • Military End-Use 25 mm2 Leadless SMT Package Functional Diagram General Description Output IP3: +36 dBm The HMC487LP5 & HMC487LP5E are high dynamic range GaAs PHEMT MMIC 2 Watt Power Amplifiers housed in leadless 5 x 5 mm surface mount packages. Operating from 9 to 12 GHz, the amplifier provides 20 dB of gain, +33 dBm of saturated power and 20% PAE from a +7V supply voltage. Output IP3 is +36 dBm typical. The RF I/Os are DC blocked and matched to 50 Ohms for ease of use. The HMC487LP5(E) eliminate the need for wire bonding, allowing use of surface mount manufacturing techniques.

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. Copper filled vias under the device are recommended. The evaluation board should be mounted to an appropriate heat sink. The evaluation circuit board shown is available from Hittite upon request.
