Overview
The HMC383LC4 is a general-purpose GaAs PHEMT MMIC Driver Amplifier produced by Analog Devices Inc. It is housed in a leadless RoHS compliant SMT package, measuring 4x4 mm. This amplifier is designed to provide 15 dB of gain and +18 dBm of saturated power from a single +5V supply. The consistent gain and output power across its operating band of 12 - 30 GHz make it suitable for use in multiple radio bands, including point-to-point and point-to-multi-point radios, VSAT, test equipment, and as a local oscillator (LO) driver for mixers.
