Hittite Intros 2 W GaAs pHEMT MMIC Power Amplifier Covers 15 to 20 GHz
|

-- Ideal for High Linearity Point-to-Point/Multi-Point Radios, Military &
Space Applications
Chelmsford,
MA, 09/09/2013 – Hittite Microwave Corporation, the world class supplier of complete MMIC based
solutions for communication & military markets, has launched a new power amplifier which
maintains excellent performance over its operating frequency range. The new amplifier,
HMC6981LS6,
is ideal for high linearity point-to-point and point-to-multi-point radios, SATCOM, military
and space applications.
The
HMC6981LS6
is a four-stage GaAs pHEMT MMIC power amplifier which operates between 15 to 20 GHz.
Ideal for covering the 18 GHz licensed microwave radio band, the amplifier provides 26 dB
of gain, +34.5 dBm of saturated output power, and 25% PAE from a +6 V supply.
With up to +43.5 dBm OIP3 and drawing only 1100 mA from a +6 V supply,
the HMC6981LS6
is also ideal for “green” mode of operation which require amplifiers offering increased RF output
performance for less DC input power. The
HMC6981LS6
is housed in a ceramic RoHS compliant 6 x 6 mm QFN leadless air cavity package
which exhibits low thermal resistance and is compatible with surface mount manufacturing techniques.
The RF I/Os are internally matched to 50 Ohms. The
HMC6981LS6
complements Hittite’s extensive line of power amplifiers which provide frequency coverage for
all of the licensed microwave radio bands from 6 to 86 GHz. Samples are available from
stock and can be ordered via the company's e-commerce site or via direct purchase order. Released
data sheets are available on-line at www.hittite.com.

RF Cafe began life in 1996 as "RF Tools" in an AOL screen name web space totaling
2 MB. Its primary purpose was to provide me with ready access to commonly needed
formulas and reference material while performing my work as an RF system and circuit
design engineer. The World Wide Web (Internet) was largely an unknown entity at
the time and bandwidth was a scarce commodity. Dial-up modems blazed along at 14.4 kbps
while tying up your telephone line, and a nice lady's voice announced "You've Got
Mail" when a new message arrived...
