Overview
The HMC383LC4TR is a general-purpose GaAs PHEMT MMIC Driver Amplifier produced by Analog Devices Inc. This amplifier is housed in a leadless RoHS compliant SMT package, making it suitable for surface mount manufacturing techniques. It operates across a wide frequency range of 12 to 30 GHz, providing 15 dB of gain and +18 dBm of saturated output power from a single +5V supply. The consistent gain and output power across the operating band enable its use in multiple radio bands with a common driver/LO amplifier approach.
