v.91 HMCLCB AMPLIFIER, 1-27 GHz Typical Applications This HMCLCB is ideal for: Features Noise Figure: 2.2 db @ 2 GHz Point-to-Point Radios Point-to-Multi-Point Radios Military & Space Test Instrumentation Functional Diagram Gain: 19 db P1dB Output Power: +17 dbm Supply Voltage: +V @ 9mA Output IP3: +2 dbm Ohm matched Input/Output 2 Lead xmm SMT Package: mm 2 General Description The HMCLCB is a GaAs MMIC Low Noise Wideband Amplifier housed in a leadless x mm ceramic surface mount package. The amplifier operates between 1 and 27 GHz, providing up to 19 db of small signal gain, 2.2 db noise figure, and output IP3 of +2 dbm, while requiring only 9 ma from a +V supply. The P1dB output power of up to +17 dbm enables the LNA to function as a LO driver for balanced, I/Q or image reject mixers. The HMCLCB also features I/Os that are DC blocked and internally matched to Ohms, making it ideal for high capacity microwave radios or VSAT applications. This versatile LNA is also available in die form as the HMC-ALH7. Electrical Specifications, T A = +2 C, Vdd = +V, Idd = 9 ma [2] Parameter Min. Typ. Max. Min. Typ. Max. Min. Typ. Max.

C, C.7 µf Capacitor, Tantalum U1 HMCLCB Amplifier PCB [2] 277 Evaluation PCB [3] [1] Reference this number when ordering complete evaluation PCB [2] Circuit Board Material: Rogers 3 or Arlon 2FR [3] Due to the very high frequency operation of this product a custom LCB PCB footprint and solder stencil are required for this design. Performance shown in this data sheet was produced using this custom footprint. DO NOT USE Hittite s standard LCB footprint. Please contact Applications for details. List of Materials for Evaluation PCB 279 [1] The circuit board used in this application should use RF circuit design techniques. Signal lines should have Ohm impedance while the package ground leads and exposed paddle 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 Analog Devices, upon request. For price, delivery, and to place orders: Analog Devices, Inc., One Technology Way, P.O.
