CONNECTORIZED MODULES - AMPLIFIERS v02.1007 9 Typical Applications The HMC-C024 Wideband Driver is ideal for: OC192 LN/MZ Modulator Driver Telecom Infrastructure Microwave Radio & VSAT Military & Space Test Instrumentation Functional Diagram HMC-C024 WIDEBAND DRIVER AMPLIFIER MODULE, 10 MHz - 20 GHz Features Gain: 15 dB Saturated Output Power: +24 dBm Spurious-Free Operation Regulated Supply and Bias Sequencing Hermetically Sealed Module Field Replaceable SMA connectors -55 to +85˚C Operating Temperature General Description The HMC-C024 is a GaAs MMIC PHEMT Distributed Driver Amplifier in a miniature, hermetic module with replaceable SMA connectors which operates between 10 MHz and 20 GHz. The amplifier provides 15 dB of gain, 3 to 4 dB noise figure and +24 dBm of saturated output power. Deviation from linear phase of only ±2 degrees from 0.01 to 10 GHz make the HMC-C024 ideal for OC192 fiber optic LN/MZ modulator driver applications. The wideband amplifier I/Os are in-ternally matched to 50 Ohms and are internally DC blocked. Integrated voltage regulators allow for flexible biasing of both the negative and positive supply pins, while internal bias sequencing circuitry assures robust operation. 9 - 74 Electrical Specifications, TA = +25° C, +Vdc = +11V to +16V, -Vdc = -3V to -12V Parameter Frequency Range Gain Gain Flatness Gain Variation Over Temperature Noise Figure Input Return Loss Output Return Loss Output Power for 1 dB Compression (P1dB) Saturated Output...
