Functional Diagram
General Description
The HMC-ALH216 is a GaAs MMIC HEMT Wideband
Low Noise Amplifier die which operates between 14
and 27 GHz. The amplifier provides 18 dB of gain,
2.5 dB noise figure and +14 dBm of output power at
1 dB gain compression while requiring only 90 mA
from a +4V supply voltage. The HMC-ALH216 amplifier
is ideal for integration into Multi-Chip-Modules
(MCMs) due to its small size.

Assembly Diagram
Note 1: Bypass caps should be 100 pF (approximately) ceramic (single-layer) placed no farther than 30 mils from the amplifier
Note 2: Best performance obtained from use of <10 mil (long) by 3 by 0.5mil ribbons on input and output
Note 3: Part can be biased from either side.
