Overview
The HMC451LC3TR-R5, produced by Analog Devices Inc., is a highly efficient GaAs PHEMT MMIC Medium Power Amplifier. This component is housed in a leadless RoHS compliant SMT package and operates within the frequency range of 5 to 20 GHz. It provides 19 dB of gain, +21 dBm of saturated power, and achieves a power-added efficiency (PAE) of 21% from a single +5.0V supply. The amplifier is 50 Ohm matched, eliminating the need for external components, and features DC blocked RF I/O's, making it ideal for use as a linear gain block or driver for HMC SMT mixers.
