Layout View
The MD54-0005SMB Designer's Kit allows for im-
mediate evaluation of M/A-COM's MD54-0005. The
evaluation board consists of an MD54-0005,
recommended external surface mount circuitry, and
RF connectors, all mounted to a multi-layer FR-4
PCB. Other items included in the Designer's Kit are
a floppy disk (with typical performance data and a
DXF file of the recommended PCB layout) and any
additional Application Notes. The MD54-0005SMB
evaluation PCB and block diagram are illustrated
below with all functional ports labeled.

Cross Section View
The PCB dielectric between RF traces and RF ground
layers should be chosen to reduce RF discontinuities
between 50 Ω lines and package pins.
recommends an FR-4 dielectric thickness of 0.008” (0.2
mm) yielding a 50 Ω line width of 0.015” (0.38 mm). The
recommended metalization thickness is 1 oz. copper.
