General Description
Features
Functional Diagram
The HMC465LP5(E) is a GaAs MMIC PHEMT Dis-
tributed Driver Amplier packaged in leadless 5x5
mm surface mount package which operate between
DC and 20 GHz. The amplier provides 15 dB of gain,
3 dB noise gure and +25 dBm of saturated output
power while requiring only 160 mA from a +8V supply.
Gain atness is excellent at ±0.5 dB as well as ±4
deg deviation from linear phase from DC - 10 GHz
making the HMC465LP5(E) ideal for OC192 ber
optic LN/MZ modulator driver ampliers as well as
test equipment applications. The HMC465LP5(E)
ampliers I/Os are internally matched to 50 Ohms.

The circuit board used in the nal application
should use RF circuit design techniques. Signal
lines should have 50 Ohm impedance while the
package ground leads and package bottom 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 Analog Devices,
upon request.

Device Operation
Device Power Up Instructions
Device Power Down Instructions
These devices are susceptible to damage from Electrostatic Discharge. Proper precautions should be observed
during handling, assembly and test.
The input to this device should be AC-coupled. To provide the typical 8Vp-p output voltage swing, a 1.2Vp-p AC-
coupled input voltage swing is required.
1. Ground the device
2. Set Vgg to -2V (no drain current)
3. Set Vctl to +1V (no drain current)
4. Set Vdd to +5V (no drain current)
5. Adjust Vgg for Idd = 140mA
• Vgg may be varied between -1V and 0V to provide the desired eye crossing point percentage (i.e. 50% crosspoint)
and a limited cross point control capability.
• Vdd may be increased to +8V if required to achieve greater output voltage swing.
• Vctl may be adjusted between +2V and +0V to vary the output voltage swing.
1. Reverse the sequence identied above in steps 1 through 4.
