Low Noise Amplifier Chip, 2 - 20 GHz

The HMC462 is a GaAs MMIC PHEMT Low Noise Distributed Amplifier die which operates between 2 and 20 GHz. The amplifier provides 15 dB of gain, 2.0 to 2.5 dB noise figure and +15 dBm of output power at 1 dB gain compression while requiring only 63 mA from a single +5V supply. Gain flatness is excellent at ±0.5 dB from 6 - 18 GHz making the HMC462 ideal for EW, ECM and RADAR applications.

The HMC462 requires a single supply of +5V @ 63 mA and is the self-biased version of the HMC463. The wideband amplifier I/Os are internally matched to 50 Ohms facilitating easy integration into Multi-Chip-Modules (MCMs). All data is with the chip in a 50 Ohm test fixture connected via 0.025mm (1 mil) diameter wire bonds of minimal length 0.31mm (12 mils).
