AD8343
EVALUATION BOARD
The following tables delineate the components used for the
The AD8343 evaluation board has two independent areas,
denoted A and B. The circuit schematics are shown in Figure 71
and Figure 72. An assembly drawing is included in Figure 73 to
ease identification of components, and representations of the
board layout are included in Figure 74 through Figure 77.
characterization procedure used to generate Figure 7 through
Figure 48 and most other data contained in this data sheet.
Table 6 lists the support components that are delivered with
the AD8343 evaluation board. Note that the board is shipped
without any frequency specific components installed. Table 7
lists the components used to obtain the frequency selection
necessary for the product receiver evaluation, and Table 8 lists
the transmitter evaluation components.
The A region is configured for ease in making device imped-
ance measurements as part of the process of developing suitable
matching networks for a final application. The B region is designed
for operating the AD8343 in a single-ended application envi-
ronment and therefore includes pads for attaching baluns or
transformers at both the input and output.
