1 Watt Power Amplifier Chip, 27.5 - 33.5 GHz

The HMC1024 is a four stage GaAs pHEMT MMIC 1 Watt Power Amplifier which operates between 27.5 and 33.5 GHz. The HMC1024 provides 24 dB of gain, +31.5 dBm of saturated output power, and 29% PAE from a +6V power supply. The HMC1024 exhibits excellent linearity and is optimized for high capacity point to point and point to multi-point radio systems. The amplifier configuration and high gain make it an excellent candidate for last stage signal amplification before the antenna. All data is taken with the chip in a 50 Ohm test fixture connected via (2) 0.025 mm (1 mil) diameter wire bonds of 0.31 mm (12 mil) length.
