HMC476MP86

Overview

The HMC476MP86 is a wideband low-power amplifier manufactured by Analog Devices Inc. It operates from DC to 6 GHz with a typical gain of 20 dB and a noise figure ranging from 2.5 dB to 3.5 dB. The device requires a supply voltage between 5 V and 12 V and draws 35 mA of current. It features an output power of 12 dBm at the 1 dB compression point (P1dB) and supports surface mount installation in a Micro-P package.

Feature Summary

• Wideband operation covering DC to 6 GHz for versatile RF applications
• High gain performance suitable for cellular and CATV systems
• Low power consumption requiring only 35 mA from a single positive supply

Applications

• Cellular communication systems
• CATV signal processing
• LO or PA driver stages
• NFC and RFID components

Procurement Notes

Verify component authenticity through authorized distributors as this part is listed as End-of-Life (EOL). Confirm that the specific package variant matches design requirements, as legacy stock may vary. Ensure compliance with RoHS standards and check for any product change notices affecting pinout or electrical characteristics before finalizing procurement plans.

Selection Notes

Select this component for designs requiring a compact, wideband amplifier with minimal external biasing. The Micro-P package suits space-constrained PCB layouts. Consider the 5 V to 12 V supply range when designing power rails. Verify thermal management capabilities given the bipolar construction and operating temperature limits up to 85 °C.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Hittite Microwave Corporation portfolio, now integrated into Analog Devices Inc. It is classified as a SiGe HBT Gain Block MMIC Amplifier. The part is designed for high-performance RF applications where size and power efficiency are critical constraints in modern wireless infrastructure.

Replacement Considerations

No public confirmed substitute part numbers are available in the provided documentation. As the part is marked End-of-Life, engineers must evaluate alternative wideband amplifiers from Analog Devices or other manufacturers that meet the 0 Hz to 6 GHz frequency range and similar gain specifications.
