EVALUATION BOARD

The ADL5380 evaluation board is available. There are two

versions of the board, optimized for performance for separate

frequency ranges. For operation <3 GHz, an FR4 material-based

board with the TC1-1-13 balun footprint is available. For operation

between 3 GHz to 6 GHz, a Rogers® material-based RO3003 board

with the Johanson Technology 3600BL14M050 balun (optimal

for operation between 3 GHz and 4 GHz) footprint is available.

The Johanson Technology 5400BL15K050 shares the same

footprint and can be used for operation between 4900 MHz to

5800 MHz.

The board can be used for single-ended or differential baseband

analysis. The default configuration of the board is for single-ended

baseband analysis.

NOTES

1. X = B, FOR LOW FREQUENCY OPERATION UP TO 3GHz, TC1-1-13 BALUN ON RF AND LO PORTS.

X = A, FOR FREQUENCY OPERATION FROM 3GHz TO 4GHz, JOHANSON TECHNOLOGY 3600BL14M050 BALUN ON RF AND LO PORTS.

2. FOR OPERATION BETWEEN 4.9GHZ TO 6GHZ, THE JOHANSON TECHNOLOGY 5400BL15K050 BALUN, WHICH SHARES A SIMILAR

FOOTPRINT AS THE 4GHZ BALUN, CAN BE USED.
