AC CHARACTERIZATIONOUTPUT FILTER

Figure 37 is used in part of the accharacterization of the

ADA4961. The picosecond 5310 balun providesthe differential

input signal and the 100 Ω differential match to the device. The

3 dB pads make the picosecond balun 50 Ω impedance less

reactive on one side, which balances the differential phase

accuracy. On the outputs, the 2 nH and 2 pF create a two-pole

low-pass filter, along with the two 50 Ω resistors in parallel with

the pads and output picosecond balun.This filter createsthe

50 Ω differential load.

The output pads makethe load morebalanced. This is essential

for good HD2 performance. This filter techniquealso creates a

lighter load (slight peaking)for the device at higher frequencies,

which improvesthe IMD3 performance. Though the filter

bandwidth (BW)computes to 3.3 GHz, the parasiticC (not

shown in Figure 37) across the 2 nH filter inductors reducesthe

3 dB BW to about 2 GHz(see Figure 4). The filter, beyond

reducing integrated output noise, also reduces the higher

frequency second and third harmonics above1 GHzand

700 MHz, respectively (see Figure 20 and Figure 21).
