General Description
Functional Diagram
The HMC754S8GE is a GaAs/InGaP HBT Dual
Channel Gain Block MMIC SMT amplier covering
DC to 1 GHz. This versatile product contains two
gain blocks, packaged in a single 8 lead plastic
SOIC-8, for use with both ampliers combined in
push-pull conguration using external baluns to cancel
out second order non-linearities and improve IP2
performance. In this conguration, the HMC754S8GE
offers high gain, very low distortion & simple external
matching. This high linearity amplier consumes only
160mA from a single positive supply.
Output IP2: +78 dBm
High Gain: 14.5 dB
High Output IP3: +38 dBm
75 Ohm Impedance
Single Positive Supply: +5V
Robust 1000V ESD, Class 1C
SOIC-8 SMT Package
Typical Applications
The HMC754S8GE is ideal for:
• CATV / Broadband Infrastructure
• Test & Measurement Equipment
• Line Amps and Fiber Nodes
• Customer Premise Equipment

Evaluation PCB - Standard and Option 2 Application
The circuit board used in the nal application
should use RF circuit design techniques. Signal
lines should have 75 ohm impedance while the
package ground leads and package bottom should
be connected directly to the ground plane similar to
that shown. A sufficient number of via holes should
be used to connect the top and bottom ground
planes. The evaluation board should be mounted
to an appropriate heat sink. The evaluation circuit
board shown is available from Hittite upon request.
