GENERAL DESCRIPTION The ADL5610 is a single-ended RF/IF gain block amplifier that provides broadband operation from 30 MHz to 6 GHz. The ADL5610 provides a low noise figure of 2.2 dB with a very high OIP3 of more than 38 dBm simultaneously, which delivers a high dynamic range. The ADL5610 provides a gain of 18 dB, which is stable over frequency, temperature, and power supply, and from device to device. The amplifier is offered in the industry-standard SOT-89 package and is internally matched to 50 Ω at the input and Rev. A output, making the ADL5610 easy to implement in a wide variety of applications. The only external parts required are the input and output ac coupling capacitors, power supply decoupling capacitors, and bias inductor. The ADL5610 has a high ESD rating of ±1.5 kV (Class 1C) and is fully specified for operation across a wide temperature range of −40°C to +105°C. A fully populated RoHS-compliant evaluation board is available. Document Feedback Information furnished by Analog Devices is believed to be accurate and reliable.

With additional measurements of the ambient temperature and input/output (I/O) power, θJA can be determined. W-CDMA ACPR PERFORMANCE Figure 30 shows a plot of the adjacent channel power ratio (ACPR) vs. POUT for the ADL5610. The signal type used is a single wideband code division multiple access (W-CDMA) carrier (Test Model 1-64) at 2140 MHz. This signal is generated by a very low ACPR source. ACPR is measured at the output by a high dynamic range spectrum analyzer that incorporates an instrument noise correction function. 0.635mm 3.48mm 5.37mm 0.20mm 0.62mm 0.86mm –10 –20 –30 –40 –50 –60 –70 –80 –90 –20 1.27mm –15 –10 –5 0 5 10 POUT (dBm) 11507-138 0.762mm ACPR AT 5MHz CARRIER OFFSET (dBc) 0 0.86mm Figure 30.
