GaAs PHEMT MMIC LOW NOISE

AMPLIFIER, 350 - 550 MHz

v03.0610

General Description

Features

Functional Diagram

The HMC356LP3 & HMC356LP3E are high dynamic

range GaAs PHEMT MMIC Low Noise Amplifiers

is ideal for GSM & CDMA cellular basestation and

Mobile Radio front-end receivers operating between

350 and 550 MHz. This LNA has been optimized to

provide 1.0 dB noise figure, 17 dB gain and +38 dBm

output IP3 from a single supply of +5V @ 104 mA.

Input and output return losses are 15 dB typical, with

the LNA requiring only four external components to

optimize the RF input match, RF ground and DC bias.

For applications which require improved noise figure,

please see the HMC616LP3(E).
