Functional Diagram
General Description
The HMC479MP86 & HMC479MP86E are SiGe
Heterojunction Bipolar Transistor (HBT) Gain Block
MMIC SMT amplifiers covering DC to 5 GHz. This
Micro-P packaged amplifier can be used as a
cascadable 50 Ohm RF/IF gain stage as well as a LO
or PA driver with up to +21 dBm output power. The
HMC479MP86(E) offers 15 dB of gain with a +34 dBm
output IP3 at 850 MHz while requiring only 72 mA from
a single positive supply. The Darlington feedback pair
used results in reduced sensitivity to normal process
variations and excellent gain stability over temperature
while requiring a minimal number of external bias
components.
