HMC-APH518
v02.0208 LINEAR & POWER AMPLIFIERS -CHIP 3 GaAs HEMT MMIC 1 WATT POWER
AMPLIFIER, 21 -24 GHz Typical Applications Features This HMC-APH518 is ideal for: Output IP3: +39 dBm • Point-to-Point Radios P1dB: +30.5 dBm • Point-to-Multi-Point Radios Gain: 17 dB • VSAT Supply Voltage: +5V • Military & Space 50 Ohm Matched Input/Output
Die Size: 4.49 x 1.31 x 0.1 mm General Description Functional Diagram The HMC-APH518 is a two stage GaAs HEMT MMIC
1 Watt Power Amplifier which operates between
21 and 24 GHz. The HMC-APH518 provides 17 dB
of gain, and an output power of +30.5 dBm at 1 dB
compression from a +5V supply voltage. All bond
pads and the die backside are Ti/Au metallized and
the amplifier device is fully passivated for reliable
operation. The HMC-APH518 GaAs HEMT MMIC 1
Watt Power Amplifier is compatible with conventional
die attach methods, as well as thermocompression
and thermosonic wire bonding, making it ideal for
MCM and hybrid microcircuit applications. All data
