General Description

The HMC263 chip is a GaAs MMIC Low Noise Amplifi er (LNA) which covers the frequency range of 24 to 36 GHz. The chip can easily be integrated into Multi-Chip Modules (MCMs) due to its small (3.29 mm2) size. The chip utilizes a GaAs PHEMT process offering 22 dB gain from a single bias supply of + 3V @ 58 mA with a noise fi gure of 2.0 dB. All data is with the chip in a 50 ohm test fi xture connected via 0.076 mm (3 mil) diameter ribbon bonds of minimal length 0.31 mm (
