Functional Diagram
General Description
The HMC311LP3 is a GaAs InGaP Heterojunction
Bipolar Transistor (HBT) Gain Block MMIC
SMT DC to 6 GHz ampli鏗乪r. This 3x3mm QFN
packaged ampli鏗乪r can be used as either a
cascadable 50 Ohm gain stage or to drive the
LO of HMC mixers with up to +17 dBm output
power. The HMC311LP3 offers 14.5 dB of gain
and an output IP3 of +30 dBm while requiring
only 56 mA from a +5V supply. The Darlington
feedback pair used results in reduced sensitivity
to normal process variations and yields excellent
gain stability over temperature while requiring a
minimal number of external bias components.
