Overview
The HMC797LP5E is a GaAs monolithic microwave integrated circuit (MMIC) PHEMT distributed power amplifier produced by Analog Devices Inc. This amplifier operates across a wide frequency range from DC to 22 GHz, making it highly versatile for various applications. It provides 13.5 dB of gain, +28 dBm of output power at 1 dB gain compression, and +39 dBm of output IP3. The device is powered by a +10 V supply and requires 400 mA of current. The amplifier is packaged in a leadless QFN 5x5 mm surface mount package and features internally matched 50 Ω input/output, eliminating the need for external matching components.
