A schematic of the Evaluation Board is shown in Figure 3. Table 7 lists the Bill of Materials (BOM) with component values for the Evaluation Board. The following design considerations are general in nature and must be followed regardless of final use or configuration. Paths to ground should be made as short as possible. The ground pad of the SKY65099-360LF power amplifier has special electrical and thermal grounding requirements. This pad is the main thermal conduit for heat dissipation. Since the circuit board acts as the heat sink, it must shunt as much heat as possible from the amplifier. As such, design the connection to the ground pad to dissipate the maximum wattage produced to the circuit board. Multiple vias to the grounding layer are required. An assembly drawing for the Evaluation Board is shown in Figure 4, and the layer detail is provided in Figure 5. The layer detail phyiscal characteristics are shown in Figure 6. Capacitor C10 provides DC decoupling, and C8 and C9 provide RF bypass for the PA. Pin 3 is the RF input port and pins 6 and 7 are the RF output ports. External DC blocking is required on the input and output, but can be implemented as part of the RF matching circuit. Ground pin 2 and the center ground pad provide the DC and RF ground. NOTE: Junction temperature (Tj) of the device increases with a poor connection to the ground pad and ground. This reduces the life of the device. Testing Procedure Use the following procedure to set up the SKY65099-360LF Evaluation Board for testing: CAUTION: If any of the output signals exceed the rated maximum values, the SKY65099-360LF Evaluation Board can be permanently damaged. 1. Connect a 5.0 V supply to the VCC pin of the J3 header (see Evaluation Board assembly drawing in Figure 4 and schematic diagram in Figure 3). If available, enable the current limiting function of the power supply to 500 mA. 2. Connect a signal generator to the RF signal input port. Set it to the desired RF frequency at a power level of –15 dBm or less to the Evaluation Board but do NOT enable the RF signal. 3. Connect a spectrum analyzer to the RF signal output port. 4. Enable the power supply. 5. Enable the RF signal. 6. Take measurements.
