Part Details
- P1dB Output Power: +33.5 dBm
- 25% PAE @ +34.5 dBm Pout
- Gain: 26 dB
- Output IP3: +43.5 dBm
- 50 Ohm Matched Input/Output
- Ceramic 6x6 mm High Frequency Air Cavity Package
The HMC6981 is a four-stage GaAs pHEMT MMIC Power Amplifier with an integrated temperature compensated on-chip Power Detector, which operates between 15 and 20 GHz. The amplifier provides 26 dB of gain, +34.5 dBm of saturated output power, and 25% PAE from a +6V supply. With an excellent output IP3 of +43.5 dBm, the HMC6981 is ideal for linear applications such as high capacity point-to-point or point-to-multi-point radios or SATCOM applications demanding +34.5 dBm of efficient saturated output power. The HMC6981 is housed in a ceramic 6 x 6 mm high frequency air cavity package which exhibits low thermal resistance and is compatible with high volume surface mount manufacturing techniques. The RF I/Os are internally matched to 50 Ohms.
Applications
- Point-to-Point Radios
- Point-to-Multi-Point Radios
- SATCOM

Tools & Simulations
S-Parameter 1
Sys-Parameter Models for Keysight Genesys
Sys-Parameter models contain behavioral parameters, such as P1dB, IP3, gain, noise figure and return loss, which describe nonlinear and linear characteristics of a device.
Open ToolADIsimRF
ADIsimRF is an easy-to-use RF signal chain calculator. Cascaded gain, noise, distortion and power consumption can be calculated, plotted and exported for signal chains with up to 50 stages. ADIsimRF also includes an extensive data base of device models for ADI’s RF and mixed signal components.
