General Description
The HMC356LP3 high dynamic range GaAs
PHEMT MMIC Low Noise Amplifier is ideal for GSM
& CDMA cellular basestation and Mobile Radio
front-end receivers operating between 350 and 550
MHz. This LNA has been optimized to provide 1.0
dB noise figure, 17 dB gain and +38 dBm output IP3
from a single supply of +5.0V @ 104 mA. Input and
output return losses are 15 dB typical, with the LNA
requiring only four external components to optimize
the RF input match, RF ground and DC bias. The
HMC356LP3 shares the same package and pinout
with the HMC372LP3 high IP3 LNA. A low cost,
leadless 3x3 mm (LP3) SMT QFN package houses
the low noise amplifier.
