Hermetically Sealed Module
Field Replaceable SMA connectors
The HMC-C023 Wideband PA is ideal for:
-55 to +85˚C Operating Temperature
• Telecom Infrastructure
• Microwave Radio & VSAT
General Description
• Military & Space
• Test Instrumentation
The HMC-C023 is a GaAs MMIC PHEMT Distributed Power Amplifier in a miniature, hermetic module
with replaceable SMA connectors which operates
between 2 and 20 GHz. The amplifier provides 15 dB
of gain, +30 dBm output IP3 and up to +26 dBm of
output power at 1 dB gain compression. Gain flatness
is excellent from 2 - 16 GHz making the HMC-C023
ideal for EW, ECM RADAR 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.
