HMC376LP3E

Overview

The HMC376LP3E is a GaAs PHEMT MMIC low noise amplifier designed for the 0.7 to 1.0 GHz frequency range. It utilizes surface-mount technology in a QFN-16 package. The component operates on a single 5 V supply and consumes 90 mA of current. Key electrical specifications include a gain of 14 dB, a noise figure of 1 dB, a P1dB compression point of 20 dBm, and an OIP3 of 35 dBm. It features an input return loss of 25 dB and supports operation within a temperature range of -40°C to +85°C.

Feature Summary

• Utilizes GaAs PHEMT MMIC technology for high-performance signal amplification
• Optimized for GSM and CDMA cellular basestation front-end receivers
• Provides low noise figure and high linearity in a compact SMT package

Applications

• GSM cellular basestation front-end receivers
• CDMA cellular basestation front-end receivers
• RF receiver chains requiring low noise amplification in the 0.7-1.0 GHz band

Procurement Notes

Verify component authenticity through authorized Analog Devices distributors or certified partners. Confirm RoHS compliance status and check for moisture sensitivity labeling prior to handling. Ensure storage conditions meet specified humidity requirements to prevent damage. Validate that the received part matches the HMC376LP3E designation exactly. Review datasheet revisions for any updates to pinout or electrical characteristics before integration.

Selection Notes

Select this component when designing systems for GSM or CDMA base stations operating between 700 MHz and 1 GHz. It is suitable for applications requiring a 1 dB noise figure and 14 dB gain with minimal power consumption. Consider the QFN-16 package for space-constrained PCB layouts. Evaluate thermal management capabilities given the 878 mW power dissipation at maximum operating temperatures.
