Functional Diagram
General Description
The HMC479MP86 is a SiGe Heterojunction Bipolar
Transistor (HBT) Gain Block MMIC SMT ampli鏗乪r
covering DC to 5 GHz. This Micro-P packaged
ampli鏗乪r 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 offers
15 dB of gain with a +35dBm 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.
