-- Ideal for High Linearity Point-to-Point/Multi-Point Radios,
   Military & Space Applications

 
HMC6981LS6 is a four-stage GaAs pHEMT MMIC power amplifier - RF CafeChelmsford, MA, 09/09/2013 – Hittite Microwave Corporation, the world class supplier of complete MMIC based solutions for communication & military markets, has launched a new power amplifier which maintains excellent performance over its operating frequency range. The new amplifier, HMC6981LS6, is ideal for high linearity point-to-point and point-to-multi-point radios, SATCOM, military and space applications.
 
Hittite HMC6981LS6 functional diagram - RF CafeThe HMC6981LS6 is a four-stage GaAs pHEMT MMIC power amplifier which operates between 15 to 20 GHz.  Ideal for covering the 18 GHz licensed microwave radio band, the amplifier provides 26 dB of gain, +34.5 dBm  of saturated output power, and 25% PAE from a +6 V supply. With up to +43.5 dBm OIP3 and drawing only 1100 mA  from a +6 V supply, the HMC6981LS6  is also ideal for “green” mode of operation which require amplifiers offering increased RF output performance for less DC input power.
 
The HMC6981LS6 is housed in a ceramic RoHS compliant 6 x 6 mm QFN leadless air cavity package which exhibits low thermal resistance and is compatible with surface mount manufacturing techniques. The RF I/Os are internally matched to 50 Ohms.
 
The HMC6981LS6 complements Hittite’s extensive line of power amplifiers which provide frequency coverage for all of the licensed microwave radio bands from 6 to 86 GHz. Samples are available from stock and can be ordered via the company's e-commerce site or via direct purchase order. Released data sheets are available on-line at www.hittite.com.

RF Cafe began life in 1996 as "RF Tools" in an AOL screen name web space totaling 2 MB. Its primary purpose was to provide me with ready access to commonly needed formulas and reference material while performing my work as an RF system and circuit design engineer. The World Wide Web (Internet) was largely an unknown entity at the time and bandwidth was a scarce commodity. Dial-up modems blazed along at 14.4 kbps while tying up your telephone line, and a nice lady's voice announced "You've Got Mail" when a new message arrived...
