The HMC280MS8G is a +3.6V GaAs MMIC power
amplifi er covering 5 to 6 GHz. The device is packaged in a low cost, surface mount 8 lead MSOP
plastic package with an exposed base paddle for
improved RF ground and thermal dissipation. The
amplifi er provides 18 dB of gain and 24 dBm
Psat while operating from a single positive supply.
External component requirements are minimal
with the amplifi er occupying less than 0.023 sq.
in. (14.6 sq. mm). All data is taken with the
amplifi er assembled into a 50 ohm test fi xture
with the exposed base paddle connected to RF
ground. For transmit / receive applications use
with either the HMC223MS8 or HMC224MS8
SPDT switches.

The circuit board used in the fi nal 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 suffi cient
number of via holes should be used to connect the top
and bottom ground planes. The evaluation circuit board
shown is available from Hittite upon request.
