Typical Applications
The HMC-C020 Wideband PA is ideal for: • Microwave Radio & VSAT • Military & Space • Test & Lab Instrumentation
Regulated Supply and Bias Sequencing Hermetically Sealed Module Field Replaceable 2.92mm connectors -55 to +85˚C Operating Temperature
General Description
The HMC-C020 is a GaAs MMIC PHEMT Power Amplifier in a miniature, hermetic module with replaceable 2.92mm connectors which operates between 17 and 24 GHz. The amplifier provides 22 dB of gain, 3.5 dB noise figure, +33 dBm output IP3 and up to +24 dBm of output power at 1 dB gain compression. The wideband amplifier I/Os are internally matched to 50 Ohms and are DC blocked making the HMC-C020 ideal for EW, ECM RADAR and test equipment applications. Integrated voltage regulators allow for flexible biasing of both the negative and positive supply pins, while internal bias sequencing circuitry assures robust operation.
