Electrical Specifications

Typical Applications

This HmC1040lp3Be is ideal for:

• Point-to-Point Radios

• Test Instrumentation

• SatCom Transponders & VSAT

• Industrial Sensors

• EW & ECM Subsystems

The HMC1040LP3CE is a self-biased GaAs MMIC

low Noise Amplifier housed in a leadless 3x3 mm

plastic surface mount package. The amplifier operates

between 24 and 43.5 GHz, delivering 23 dB of small

signal gain, 2.2 dB noise figure, and output IP3 of +22

dBm, while requiring only 70 mA from a +2.5 V supply.

The P1dB output power of +12 dBm enables the LNA to

function as a LO driver for many of Hittite’s balanced, I/Q

and image reject mixers. The HmC1040lp3Ce fe-

atures I/Os that are DC blocked and internally mat-

ched to 50 Ohms, and is ideal for high capacity

microwave radios and VsAT applications.
