The amplifier operates between 14 and 27 GHz, providing up to 19 dB of small signal gain, 2.2 dB noise figure, and output IP3 of +26 dBm, while requiring only 90 mA from a +4V 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 HMC504LC4B also features I/Os that are DC blocked and internally matched to 50 Ohms, making it ideal for high capacity microwave radios or VSAT applications. This versatile LNA is also available in die form as the HMCALH476. Electrical Specifications, TA = +25 C, Vdd = +4V, Idd = 90 mA[2] Parameter Min.

Signal lines should have 50 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 Hittite upon request. [3] Due to the very high frequency operation of this product a custom LC4B 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 LC4B footprint. Please contact Applications for details.
