General Description
The HMC-C050 is a GaAs HBT Ultra Low Noise Amplifi er in a miniature, hermetic module designed to operate between 2 and 18 GHz. This high dynamic range amplifi er module provides 13.5 dB of gain, 5 dB noise fi gure and up to +22.5 dBm of OIP3 with a single supply of +5V. The ultra low phase noise contribution of -160 dBc/Hz, enables superior modulation accuracy within transceiver architectures.
