HMC6980
v03.1014
WIDEBAND POWER AMPLIFIER
MODULE, 0.01 - 20 GHZ
Features
Amplifiers
Gain: 12 dB
P1dB Output Power: +28 dBm
Regulated Supply and Bias Sequencing
Hermetically Sealed Module
Typical Applications
Field Replaceable SMA connectors
-55 to +85 ˚C Operating Temperature
The HMC6980 Wideband PA is ideal for:
• Telecom Infrastructure
• Microwave Radio & VSAT
General Description
• Military & Space
The HMC6980 is a GaAs MMIC PHEMT Power
Amplifier in a miniature, hermetic module with
replaceable SMA connectors which operates between 0.01 GHz and 20 GHz. The amplifier 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 flatness is excellent from 2 - 18 GHz making
the HMC6980 ideal for EW, ECM, Radar, Fiber Optic
and test equipment applications. The wideband
amplifier I/Os are internally matched to 50 Ohms and
are DC blocked. Integrated voltage regulators allow
for flexible biasing of both the negative and positive
supply pins, while internal bias sequencing circuitry
assures robust operation.
