General Description

The HMC-C057 is a GaAs MMIC PHEMT Power Amplif er in a miniature, hermetic module with replaceable SMA connectors which operates bet ween 0.01 GHz and 20 GHz. The amplif er provides 12 dB of gain, up to +36 dBm output IP3 and up to +28 dBm of output power at 1 dB gain compression. Gain fl atness is excellent from 2 - 18 GHz making the HMC-C057 ideal for EW, ECM, Radar, Fiber Optic and test equipment applications. The wideband amplif er I/Os are internally matched to 50 Ohms and are DC blocked. Integrated voltage regulators allow for fl exible biasing of both the negative and positive supply pins, while internal bias sequencing circuitry assures robust operation.
