General Description

The HMC994 is a GaAs MMIC pHEMT Distributed Power Amplifier which operates between DC and 30 GHz. The amplifier provides 14 dB of gain, 36 dBm output IP3 and +28 dBm of output power at 1 dB gain compression while requiring 250 mA from a +10 V supply. The HMC994 exhibits a slightly positive gain slope from 5 to 25 GHz, making it ideal for EW, ECM, Radar and test equipment applications. The HMC994 amplifier I/Os are internally matched to 50 Ohms facilitating integration into Mutli-Chip-Modules (MCMs). All data is taken with the chip connected via two 0.025 mm (1 mil) wire bonds of minimal length 0.31 mm (12 mils).
