Procurement Notes

Verify the specific package type, as this item is a bare die rather than a standard packaged component. Confirm compatibility with your substrate and assembly processes. Check for obsolescence status or lifecycle changes directly from Analog Devices documentation before finalizing design-in decisions.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a bare die LNA is required for the 3.5 to 7.0 GHz band. Consider the 1.7 dB noise figure and 17.2 dB gain for sensitive receiver front-ends. Ensure thermal management supports the specified power dissipation limits within the target application environment.

Part Context

The HMC392A belongs to the HMC392 series of low noise amplifiers manufactured by Analog Devices Inc. It is part of their portfolio of GaAs MMICs designed for wireless communication applications. This specific model represents the die version of the amplifier family.
