The HMC8500PM5E is a gallium nitride (GaN), broadband power amplifier delivering 10 W (40 dBm), typical, with up to 55% power added efficiency (PAE) across an instantaneous bandwidth of 0.01 GHz to 2.8 GHz, at an input power of 30 dBm. The typical gain flatness is 3 dB at small signal levels.
The HMC8500PM5E is ideal for pulsed or continuous wave (CW) applications, such as wireless infrastructure, radars, public mobile radios, and general-purpose amplification.
The HMC8500PM5E amplifier is externally tuned using low cost, surface-mount components and is available in a compact LFCSP package.
