The HMC6187LP4E is a GaAs MMIC pHEMT analog variable gain amplifier and/or driver amplifier which operates between 27 and 31.5 GHz and is ideal for microwave radio applications. The amplifier provides up to 19 dB of gain, output P1dB of up to +24 dBm, and up to +31 dBm of output IP3 at maximum gain, while requiring 230 mA from a +5V supply. A gain control voltage (Vctrl) is provided to allow variable gain control up to 13 dB. Gain flatness is excellent making the HMC6187LP4E ideal for EW, ECM and radar applications. The HMC6187LP4E is housed in a RoHS compliant 4 x 4 mm plastic QFN leadless package and is compatible with high volume surface mount manufacturing.APPLICATIONSPoint-to-Point RadioPoint-to-Multi-Point RadioEW & ECM SubsystemsKa-Band Radar & VSATTest Equipment
