The HMC719LP4(E) is a GaAs PHEMT MMIC
Low Noise Amplier that is ideal for Cellular/3G and
LTE/WiMAX/4G basestation front-end receivers
operating between 1.3 and 2.9 GHz. The amplier
has been optimized to provide 1.0 dB noise gure,
34 dB gain and +39 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
HMC719LP4(E) shares the same package and pinout
with the HMC718LP3(E) 600 - 1400 MHz LNA. The
HMC719LP4(E) can be biased with +3V to +5V and
features an externally adjustable supply current
which allows the designer to tailor the linearity
performance of the LNA for each application.
Noise Figure: 1.0 dB
Gain: 34 dB
Output IP3: +39 dBm
Single Supply: +3V to +5V
50 Ohm Matched Input/Output
24 Lead 4x4 mm SMT Package: 16 mm2
The HMC719LP4(E) is ideal for:
• Cellular/3G and LTE/WiMAX/4G
• BTS & Infrastructure
• Repeaters and Femtocells
• Access Points
• Test Equipment & Military

Evaluation PCB
List of Materials for Evaluation PCB 121242 [1]
The circuit board used in this application should use
RF circuit design techniques. 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 appro-
priate heat sink. The evaluation circuit board shown
is available from Hittite upon request.
