General Description
The HMC633 is a GaAs MMIC PHEMT Driver
Amplifier die which operates between 5 and 17 GHz.
The amplifier provides up to 31 dB of gain, +30 dBm
Output IP3, and +23 dBm of output power at 1 dB
gain compression, while requiring 180 mA from a +5V
supply. The HMC633 is an ideal driver amplifier for
microwave radio applications from 5 to 17 GHz, and
may also be biased at +5V, 130 mA to provide 2 dB
lower gain with improved PAE. The HMC633 amplifier
I/O’s are DC blocked and internally matched to 50
Ohms facilitating easy integration into Multi-Chip-
Modules (MCMs). All data is taken with die connected
at input and output RF ports via one 1 mil wedge bond
with minimal length of 0.31 mm (12 mils).
