APPLICATIO S I FOR ATIO
LT5518
coupling capacitor can be inserted in the RF output line.
This is strongly recommended during a 1dB compression
measurement.
Enable Interface
Figure 7 shows a simplifi ed schematic of the EN pin inter-
face. The voltage necessary to turn on the LT5518 is 1.0V.
To disable (shutdown) the chip, the Enable voltage must
be below 0.5V. If the EN pin is not connected, the chip is
disabled. This EN = Low condition is guaranteed by the
75kΩ on-chip pull-down resistor. It is important that the
voltage at the EN pin does not exceed V
0.5V. If this should occur, the full chip supply current could
be sourced through the EN pin ESD protection diodes.
Damage to the chip may result.
Evaluation and Demo Boards
Figure 8 shows the schematic of the evaluation board that
was used for the measurements summarized in the Elec-
trical Characteristics tables and the Typical Performance
Characteristic plots.
Figure 9 shows the demo board schematic. Resistors R3,
R4, R10 and R11 may be replaced by shorting wires if a
fl at frequency response to DC is required. A good ground
connection is required for the exposed pad of the LT5518
package. If this is not done properly, the RF performance
will degrade. The exposed pad also provides heat sink-
ing for the part and minimizes the possibility of the chip
overheating. R7 (optional) limits the Enable pin current in
the event that the Enable pin is pulled high while the V
inputs are low. In Figures 10, 11 and 12 the silk screen
and the demo board PCB layouts are shown. If improved
LO and Image suppression is required, an LO feedthrough
calibration and an Image suppression calibration can be
performed.
