General Description
The HMC518 chip is a high dynamic range GaAs PHEMT MMIC Low Noise Amplifier (LNA) which covers the 20 to 32 GHz frequency range. The HMC518 provides 15 dB of small signal gain, 3 dB of noise figure and has an output IP3 greater than 23 dBm. The chip can easily be integrated into hybrid or MCM assemblies due to its small size.
