Functional Diagram
General Description
The HMC310MS8G & HMC310MS8GE are multi-
function RFICs that incorporates a power amplifier
(PA) and low noise amplifier (LNA) with a transmit/
receive switch. These RFICs offer 15 dB gain and +5
dBm P1dB in the transmit mode and 13 dB of gain
with an overall noise figure of 3 dB when in receive
mode. Transmit and receive performance levels have
been selected to meet the BLUETOOTH Class 2 & 3
requirements when used in conjunction with 2.4 GHz
ASICs such as National Semiconductor’s LMX3162.
This low current and low cost transceiver requires no
external circuitry to operate the amplifier power down
features, and is available in the industry standard
MSOP8G package, which is 0.118” x 0.190” (3.0mm
x 4.9mm).
