AI
The HMC1068 is a broadband distributed amplifier optimized for time-domain performance with high bandwidth supporting data-rates up to 32Gbps. The output signal amplitude and cross point are adjustable through the control pins and the integrated peak detector feature is used for monitoring the output voltage signal levels during device's normal operation.The HMC1068 is designed in GaAs MMIC PHEMT process and the device can support wide supply (Vdd) voltage range from 3.3V to 7V with excellent performance, which gives the system designers the flexibility to further optimize the power consumption of the device by settings the supply voltage to its optimum value depending on the output voltage requirements.HMC1068 performance is optimized for operating as a pre-stage amplifier in a cascaded configuration when HMC1069 is used as post-stage driver.The HMC1068 comes in a small die size and need minimal number of external components for decoupling only, which makes it well suited for driver integrated optical modulator chip-and-wire module assemblies..ApplicationsUp to 32Gbps optical modulator driverTest and Measurement InstrumentationMicrowave Radio & VSATMilitary & SpaceUp to 32Gbps pre-driver or receiver block
