HMC907LP5E
GaAs pHEMT MMIC
POWER AMPLIFIER, 0.2 - 22 GHz
v00.0510
General Description
Features
Functional Diagram
The HMC907LP5E is a GaAs MMIC pHEMT Distributed
Power Amplier which operates between 0.2 and
22 GHz. This self-biased power amplier provides
12 dB of gain, +36 dBm output IP3 and +26 dBm of
output power at 1 dB gain compression while requir-
ing only 350 mA from a +10 V supply. Gain atness is
excellent at ±0.7 dB from 0.2 to 22 GHz making the
HMC907LP5E ideal for EW, ECM, Radar and test
equipment applications. The HMC907LP5E amplier
I/Os are internally matched to 50 Ohms facilitating
integration into Mutli-Chip-Modules (MCMs) and is
packaged in a leadless QFN 5x5 mm surface mount
package, and requires no external matching compo-
nents.
High P1dB Output Power: +26 dBm
High Gain: 12 dB
High Output IP3: +36 dBm
Single Supply: +10 V @ 350 mA
50 Ohm Matched Input/Output
32 Lead 5x5 mm SMT Package: 25 mm
Typical Applications
The HMC907LP5E is ideal for:
• Test Instrumentation
• Microwave Radio & VSAT
• Military & Space
• Telecom Infrastructure
• Fiber Optics

The circuit board used in the application should
use RF circuit design techniques. Signal lines
should have 50 Ohm impedance while the package
ground leads and exposed paddle should be con-
nected 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 Hittite upon request.
