The HMC594 is a GaAs PHEMT MMIC Low Noise Amplifier (LNA) chip which operates from 2 to 4 GHz. The HMC594 features extremely flat performance characteristics including 10dB of small signal gain, 2.6dB of noise figure and output IP3 of +36 dBm across the operating band. This versatile LNA is ideal for hybrid and MCM assemblies due to its Compact size, consistent output power and DC block RF I/O's. All data is measured with the chip in a 50 Ohm test fixture connected via one 0.025 mm (1 mil) diameter bondwire of minimal length 0.31 mm (12 mil).ApplicationsFixed MicrowavePoint-to-Multi-Point RadiosTest & Measurement EquipmentRadar & SensorsMilitary & Space
