HMC462LP5 / 462LP5E

v05.0213

GaAs pHEMT MMIC

LOW NOISE AMPLIFIER, 2 - 20 GHz

General Description

Features

Functional Diagram

The HMC462LP5 & HMC462LP5E are GaAs MMIC

pHEMT Low Noise Distributed Amplifiers in leadless

5x5 mm surface mount packages which operate

between 2 and 20 GHz. The self-biased amplifier

provides 13 dB of gain, 2.5 to 3.5 dB noise figure and

+14.5 dBm of output power at 1 dB gain compression

while requiring only 66 mA from a single +5V supply.

Gain flatness is excellent from 6 - 18 GHz making

the HMC462LP5 & HMC462LP5E ideal for EW,

ECM RADAR and test equipment applications. The

wideband amplifier I/Os are internally matched to 50

Ohms and are internally DC blocked.

Noise Figure: 2.5 dB @ 10 GHz

Gain: 13 dB

P1dB Output Power: +14.5 dBm @ 10 GHz

Self-Biased: +5V @ 66mA

50 Ohm Matched Input/Output

Typical Applications

The HMC462LP5 / HMC462LP5E Wideband LNA is

ideal for:

• Telecom Infrastructure

• Microwave Radio & VSAT

• Test Instrumentation

• Fiber Optics
