General Description
The HMC469MS8G & HMC469MS8GE are SiGe HBT
Dual Channel Gain Block MMIC SMT amplifiers
covering DC to 5 GHz. These versatile products
contain two gain blocks, packaged in a single 8 lead
plastic MSOP, for use as either separate cascadable
50 Ohm RF/IF gain stages, LO or PA drivers or with
both amplifiers combined utilizing external 90°
hybrids to create a high linearity driver amplifier. Each
amplifier in the HMC469MS8G(E) offers 15 dB of
gain, +18 dBm P1dB with a +34 dBm output IP3 at
850 MHz while requiring only 75 mA from a single
positive supply. The combined dual amplifier circuit
delivers up to +20 dBm P1dB with +35 dBm OIP3
for specific application bands through 4 GHz.
