Image of Analog Devices' HMC8412 Low Noise Amplifier, 0.4 GHz to 11 GHz ADI's HMC8412 is a gallium arsenide (GaAs), monolithic microwave integrated circuit (MMIC), pseudomorphic high electron mobility transistor (pHEMT), low noise wideband amplifier that operates from 0.4 GHz to 11 GHz.

The HMC8412 also features inputs and outputs that are internally matched to 50 Ω, making the device ideal for surface-mount technology (SMT)-based, high capacity microwave radio applications.

The HMC8412 provides a typical gain of 15.5 dB, a 1.4 dB typical noise figure, and a typical output third-order intercept (OIP3) of ≤33 dBm, requiring only 60 mA from a 5 V drain supply voltage. The saturated output power (PSAT) of ≤20.5 dBm, typical, enables the low noise amplifier (LNA) to function as a local oscillator (LO) driver for many Analog Devices, Inc., balanced, in-phase, and quadrature (I/Q) or image rejection mixers.

The HMC8412 is housed in a RoHS-compliant, 2 mm × 2 mm, 6-lead LFCSP.
