Functional Diagram
General Description
The HmC758lp3(e) is a GaAs pHemT mmiC low
Noise Amplifier that is ideal for Cellular infrastructure,
wimAX & lTe/4G basestation front-end receivers
operating between 700 and 2200 mHz. The amplifier
has been optimized to provide 1.7 dB noise figure,
21 dB gain and +37 dBm output ip3 from a single
supply of +5V. input and output return losses are
excellent with minimal external matching and bias
decoupling components. The HmC758lp3(e) can
be biased with +3V to +5V and features an externally
adjustable supply current, which allows the designer
to tailor the linearity performance of the lNA for
each application.
