The HMC486LP5 & HMC486LP5E are high dynamic range GaAs PHEMT MMIC 2 Watt Power Amplifiers housed in leadless 5 x 5 mm surface mount packages. Operating from 7 to 9 GHz, the amplifier provides 22 dB of gain, +33 dBm of saturated power and 20% PAE from a +7.0 V supply voltage. Output IP3 is +40 dBm typical. The RF I/Os are DC blocked and matched to 50 Ohms for ease of use. The HMC486LP5 & HMC486LP5E eliminate the need for wire bonding, allowing use of surface mount manufacturing techniques.
