Functional Diagram
General Description
The HMC460LC5 is a GaAs MMIC pHEMT Low Noise
Distributed Amplifier in a leadless 5x5 mm ceramic
surface mount package which operates from DC to
20 GHz. The amplifier provides 14 dB of gain, 2.5 dB
noise figure and +16.5 dBm of output power at 1 dB
gain compression while requiring only 75 mA from a
Vdd = 8V supply. Gain flatness is excellent from DC
to 20 GHz making the HMC460LC5 ideal for EW,
ECM, Radar and test equipment applications. The
wideband amplifier I/Os are internally matched to 50
Ohms.

[1]
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 package bottom 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.
