• Telecom Infrastructure
• Microwave Radio & VSAT
General Description
• Military & Space
The HMC-C059 is a GaAs MMIC pHEMT Low Noise
Distributed Amplifier in a miniature, hermetic module
with replaceable SMA connectors which operates
between 1 and 12 GHz. The amplifier provides
16 dB of gain, 1.8 dB noise figure, and up to +17
dBm of output power at 1 dB gain compression. The
wideband amplifier I/Os are internally matched to
50 Ohms and are internally 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.
