HMC952ALP5GE v03.0418 Amplifiers - Linear & Power - SMT GaAs pHEMT MMIC 2 Watt POWER AMPLIFIER WITH POWER DETECTOR 8 - 14 GHz Typical Applications Features The HMC952ALP5GE is ideal for: +35 dBm Psat @ 26% PAE * Point-to-Point Radios High P1dB Output Power: +34 dBm * Point-to-Multi-Point Radios High Gain: 32 dB * SATCOM High Output IP3: +43 dBm Supply Voltage: Vdd = +6V @ 1400 mA 50 Ohm Matched Input/Output Functional Diagram General Description The HMC952ALP5GE is a four-stage GaAs pHEMT MMIC Medium Power Amplifier with a temperature compensated on-chip power detector which operates between 8 and 14 GHz. The amplifier provides 32 dB of gain and +34.5 dBm of saturated output power at 26% PAE from a +6V supply. With up to +43 dBm IP3 the HMC952ALP5GE is ideal for linear applications such as point-to-point and point-to-multipoint radios or SATCOM applications demanding +34.5dBm of efficient saturated output power. The RF I/Os are internally matched to 50 Ohms. Electrical Specifications, TA = +25 C, Vdd1, Vdd2, Vdd3, Vdd4 = +6V, Idd = 1400 mA [1] Parameter Min. Typ.
