Power Supply Decoupling. The nominal supply decoupling consists of
100 pF and 0.1 μF capacitors at each power supply pin (the VPS2 pinsꢀ Pin 18
to Pin 22ꢀ share a pair of decoupling capacitors because of their proximity). A
series inductor or small resistor can be placed between the capacitors for
additional decoupling.
T1ꢀ C5ꢀ C6
Input Interface. The 1:1 balun transformer T1 converts a 50 Ω single-ended
input to the 50 Ω differential input. C5 and C6 are dc blocks.
T1 = ETC1-1-13 (M/A-COM)
C5ꢀ C6 = 100 pF (size 0603)
T2ꢀ C11ꢀ C12ꢀ L1ꢀ L2
Output Interface. The 1:1 balun transformer T2 converts the 50 Ω differential T2 = ETC1-1-13 (M/A-COM)
output to 50 Ω single-ended output. C11 and C2 are dc blocks. L3 and
L4 provide dc biases for the output.
C11ꢀ C12 = 100 pF (size 0603)
L1ꢀ L2 = 120 nH (size 0805)
SW1ꢀ R1ꢀ R13
Enable Interface. The ADL5330 is enabled by applying a logic high voltage
to the ENBL pin by placing a jumper across SW1 to the O position. Remove
the jumper for disable. To exercise the enable function by applying an
external high or low voltageꢀ use the pin labeled O on the SW1 header.
SW1 = installed
R1 = 0 Ω (size 0402)
R13 = 10 kΩ (size 0402)
M1 to M18 = not installed
(size 0603)
C15 to C18 = not installed
(size 0603)
C15 to C18ꢀ M1 to M18
Alternate Input/Output Interface. The circuit side of the evaluation board
offers an alternate RF input and output interface. A lumped-element balun
can be built using L and C components instead of using the balun
transformer (see the Applications section). The componentsꢀ M1 through
M9ꢀ are used for the inputꢀ and M10 through M18 are used for the output.
To use the alternate RF pathsꢀ disconnect the dc blocking capacitors
(Capacitor C5 and Capacitor C6 for the input and Capacitor C11 and
Capacitor C12 for the output). Place 100 pF dc blocking capacitors on
C15ꢀ C16ꢀ C17ꢀ and C18. Use the alternate set of SMA connectorsꢀ
INPUT2 and OUT2.
