The HMC1040CHIPS is a gallium arsenide (GaAs), pseudomorphic high electron mobility transistor (pHEMT), monolithic microwave integrated circuit (MMIC), low noise wideband amplifier that operates from 20 GHz to 44 GHz. The HMC1040CHIPS is self biased and provides a typical gain of 25.0 dB, a 2 dB typical noise figure, and a typical output third-order intercept (IP3) of 25.5 dBm typical, requiring only 65 mA from a 2.5 V supply voltage. The typical saturated output power (PSAT) of 15.5 dBm enables the low noise amplifier (LNA) to function as a local oscillator (LO) driver for many of Analog Devices, Inc., balanced, in phase quadrature (I/Q) or image rejection mixers.The HMC1040CHIPS also feature inputs and outputs that are internally matched to 50 Ω, making it ideal for surface-mounted technology (SMT)-based, high capacity microwave radio applications.ApplicationsSoftware defined radiosElectronic warfareRadar applicationsSatellite communicationElectronic warfareInstrumentationTelecommunications
