GaAs PHEMT MMIC Driver Amplifier, 5 - 17 GHz

The HMC633 is a GaAs MMIC PHEMT Driver Amplifier die which operates between 5 and 17 GHz. The amplifier provides up to 31 dB of gain, +30 dBm Output IP3, and +23 dBm of output power at 1 dB gain compression, while requiring 180 mA from a +5V supply. The HMC633 is an ideal driver amplifier for microwave radio applications from 5 to 17 GHz, and may also be biased at +5V, 130 mA to provide 2 dB lower gain with improved PAE. The HMC633 amplifier I/O’s are DC blocked and internally matched to 50 Ohms facilitating easy integration into Multi-Chip-Modules (MCMs). All data is taken with die connected at input and output RF ports via one 1 mil wedge bond with minimal length of 0.31 mm (12 mils).
