HMC-C001 v03.1007 WIDEBAND LNA MODULE, 2 - 20 GHz CONNECTORIZED MODULES - AMPLIFIERS 9 Features Noise Figure: 2 dB @ 10 GHz Flat Gain: 15 dB ± 0.5 dB P1dB Output Power: +14 dBm @ 10 GHz 50 Ohm Matched Input/Output Regulated Supply + 9V to +15V @ 65mA Typical Applications Hermetically Sealed Module The HMC-C001 Wideband LNA 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-C001 is a GaAs MMIC PHEMT Low Noise Distributed 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, 2 to 3 dB noise figure and +14 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-C001 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 Specifi cations, TA = +25° C, Vs= +9V to +15V Parameter Min.
