HMC667LP2 / 667LP2E v02.1110 AMPLIFIERS - LOW NOISE - SMT 7 GaAs PHEMT MMIC LOW NOISE AMPLIFIER, 2.3 - 2.7 GHz Typical Applications Features The HMC667LP2(E) is ideal for: Low Noise Figure: 0.75 dB * WiMAX, WiBro & Fixed Wireless High Gain: 19 dB * SDARS & WLAN Receivers High Output IP3: +29.5 dBm * Infrastructure & Repeaters Single Supply: +3V to +5V * Access Points 6 Lead 2x2mm DFN Package: 4 mm2 * Telematics & DMB Functional Diagram General Description The HMC667LP2(E) is a GaAs PHEMT MMIC Low Noise Amplifier that is ideal for WiMAX, WLAN and fixed wireless receivers operating between 2300 and 2700 MHz. This self-biased LNA has been optimized to provide 0.75 dB noise figure, 19 dB gain and +29.5 dBm output IP3 from a single supply of +5V. Input and output return losses are excellent and the LNA requires minimal external matching and bias decoupling components. The HMC667LP2(E) can also operate from a +3V supply for lower power applications. Electrical Specifi cations, TA = +25 C Vdd = +3 Vdc Vdd = +5 Vdc Parameter Units Min. Frequency Range Gain Max.

Signal lines should have 50 Ohm impedance while the package ground leads and exposed paddle should be connected directly to the ground plane similar to that shown. A sufficient number of via holes should be used to connect the top and bottom ground planes. The evaluation board should be mounted to an appropriate heat sink. The evaluation circuit board shown is available from Hittite upon request.
