This test fixture is designed to evaluate the coupler in the same environment that is recommended for installation. Enclosed inside the test fixture, is a circuit board that is fabricated using the recommended footprint. The part being tested is placed into the test fixture and pressure is applied to the top of the device using a pneumatic piston. A four port Vector Network Analyzer is connected to the fixture and is used to measure the S-parameters of the part. Worst case values for each parameter are found and compared to the specification. These worst case values are reported to the test equipment operator along with a Pass or Fail flag. See the illustrations below. 3 & 5 dB Test Board 10 & 20 dB Test Board Test Board In Fixture Test Station USA/Canada: Toll Free: Europe: (315) 432-8909 (800) 411-6596 +44 2392-232392 Available on Tape and Reel for Pick and Place Manufacturing. Model XMC2560E-03 Rev B The effects of the test fixture on the measured data must be minimized in order to accurately determine the performance of the device under test. If the line impedance is anything other than 50Ω and/or there is a discontinuity at the microstrip to SMA interface, there will be errors in the data for the device under test. The test environment can never be “perfect”, but the procedure used to build and evaluate the test boards (outlined below) demonstrates an attempt to minimize the errors associated with testing these devices. The lower the signal level that is being measured, the more impact the fixture errors will have on the data. Parameters such as Return Loss and Isolation/Directivity, which are specified as low as 27dB and typically measure at much lower levels, will present the greatest measurement challenge. The test fixture errors introduce an uncertainty to the measured data. Fixture errors can make the performance of the device under test look better or worse than it actually is. For example, if a device has a known return loss of 30dB and a discontinuity with a magnitude of –35dB is introduced into the measurement path, the new measured Return Loss data could read anywhere between –26dB and –37dB. This same discontinuity could introduce an insertion phase error of up to 1°. There are different techniques used throughout the industry to minimize the affects of the test fixture on the measurement data. Anaren uses the following design and de-embedding criteria: • Test boards have been designed and parameters specified to provide trace impedances of 50 ±1Ω. Furthermore, discontinuities at the SMA to microstrip interface are required to be less than –35dB and insertion phase errors (due to differences in the connector interface discontinuities and the electrical line length) should be less than ±0.25° from the median value of the four paths. • A “Thru” circuit board is built. This is a two port, microstrip board that uses the same SMA to microstrip interface and has the same total length (insertion phase) as the actual test board. The “Thru” board must meet the same stringent requirements as the test board. The insertion loss and insertion phase of the “Thru” board are measured and stored. This data is used to completely de-embed the device under test from the test fixture. The de-embedded data is available in S-parameter form on the Anaren website (www.anaren.com). Note: The S-parameter files that are available on the anaren.com website include data for frequencies that are outside of the specified band. It is important to note that the test fixture is designed for optimum performance through 6GHz. Some degradation in the test fixture performance will occur above this frequency and connector interface discontinuities of –25dB or more can be expected. This larger discontinuity may affect the data at frequencies above 6GHz. Circuit Board Layout The dimensions for the Anaren test board are shown below. The test board is printed on Rogers RO4003 material that is 0.020” thick. Consider the case when a different material is used. First, the pad size must remain the same to accommodate the part. But, if the material thickness or dielectric constant (or both) changes, the reactance at the interface to the coupler will also change. Second, the line width required for 50Ω will be different and this will introduce a step in the line at the pad where the coupler interfaces with the printed microstrip trace. Both of these conditions will affect the performance of the part. To achieve the specified performance, serious attention must be given to the design and layout of the circuit environment in which this component will be used. If a different circuit board material is used, an attempt should be made to achieve the same interface pad reactance that is present on the Anaren RO4003 test board. When thinner circuit board material is used, the ground plane will be closer to the pad yielding more capacitance for the same size interface pad. The same is true if the dielectric constant of the circuit board material is higher than is used on the Anaren test board. In both of these cases, narrowing the line before the interface pad will introduce a series inductance, which, when properly tuned, will compensate for the extra capacitive reactance. If a thicker circuit board or one with a lower dielectric constant is used, Available on Tape and Reel for Pick and Place Manufacturing.

In this case, a wider section of line before the interface pad (or a larger interface pad) will introduce a shunt capacitance and when properly tuned will match the performance of the Anaren test board. The entry angle of the traces has a significant impact on the RF performance and these parts have been optimized for the layout used on the test boards shown below. Testing Sample Parts Supplied on Anaren Test Boards If you have received a coupler installed on an Anaren produced microstrip test board, please remember to remove the loss of the test board from the measured data. The loss is small enough that it is not of concern for Return Loss and Isolation/Directivity, but it should certainly be considered when measuring coupling and calculating the insertion loss of the coupler. An S-parameter file for a “Thru” board (see description of “Thru” board above) will be supplied upon request. As a first order approximation, one should consider the following loss estimates: Frequency Band 2500 MHz 4000 MHz 6000 MHz Avg. Ins. Loss of Test Board @ 25°C ~ 0.29dB ~ 0.41dB ~ 0.57dB For example, a 4300MHz, 10dB coupler on a test board may measure –10.60dB from input to the coupled port at frequency F1=4000 MHz. When the loss of the test board is removed, the coupling at F1 becomes -10.19dB (10.60dB + 0.41dB). This compensation must be made to both the coupled and direct path measurements when calculating insertion loss. The loss estimates in the table above come from room temperature measurements. It is important to note that the loss of the test board will change with temperature. This fact must be considered if the coupler is to be evaluated at other temperatures. Orientation Marker A printed circular feature appears on the top surface of the coupler to designate Pin 1. This orientation marker is not intended to limit the use of the symmetry that these couplers exhibit but rather to facilitate consistent placement of these parts into the tape and reel package. This ensures that the components are always delivered with the same orientation. Refer to the table on page 2 of the data sheet for allowable pin configurations.

Model XMC2560E-03 Rev B Mounting Coupler Mounting Process In order for Xinger surface mount couplers to work optimally, there must be 50Ω transmission lines leading to and from all of the RF ports. Also, there must be a very good ground plane underneath the part to ensure proper electrical performance. If either of these two conditions is not satisfied, insertion loss, coupling, VSWR and isolation may not meet published specifications. Overall ground is improved if a dense population of plated through holes connect the top and bottom ground layers of the PCB. This minimizes ground inductance and improves ground continuity. All of the Xinger hybrid and directional couplers are constructed from ceramic filled PTFE composites which possess excellent electrical and mechanical stability having X and Y thermal coefficient of expansion (CTE) of 17-25 ppm/oC. When a surface mount hybrid coupler is mounted to a printed circuit board, the primary concerns are; ensuring the RF pads of the device are in contact with the circuit trace of the PCB and insuring the ground plane of neither the component nor the PCB is in contact with the RF signal. Mounting Footprint To ensure proper electrical and thermal performance there must be a ground plane with 100% solder connection underneath the part The process for assembling this component is a conventional surface mount process as shown in Figure 1. This process is conducive to both low and high volume usage. Figure 1: Surface Mounting Process Steps Storage of Components: The Xinger products are available in either an immersion tin or tin-lead finish. Commonly used storage procedures used to control oxidation should be followed for these surface mount components. The storage temperatures should be held between 15OC and 60OC. Substrate: Depending upon the particular component, the circuit material has an x and y coefficient of thermal expansion of between 17 and 25 ppm/°C. This coefficient minimizes solder joint stresses due to similar expansion rates of most commonly used board substrates such as RF35, RO4350, FR4, polyimide and G-10 materials. Mounting to “hard” substrates (alumina etc.) is possible depending upon operational temperature requirements. The solder surfaces of the coupler are all copper plated with either an immersion tin or tin-lead exterior finish. Solder Paste: All conventional solder paste formulations will work well with Anaren’s Xinger II surface mount components. Solder paste can be applied with stencils or syringe dispensers. An example of a stenciled solder paste deposit is shown in Figure 2. As shown in the figure solder paste is applied to the four RF pads and the entire ground plane underneath the body of the part.

A low and high temperature thermal reflow profile are shown in Figures 5 and 6, respectively. Manual soldering of these components can be done with conventional surface mount non-contact hot air soldering tools. Board pre-heating is highly recommended for these selective hot air soldering methods. Manual soldering with conventional irons should be avoided. Figure 2: Solder Paste Application Coupler Positioning: The surface mount coupler can be placed manually or with automatic pick and place mechanisms. Couplers should be placed (see Figure 3 and 4) onto wet paste with common surface mount techniques and parameters. Pick and place systems must supply adequate vacuum to hold a 0.50-0.55 gram coupler.

Splitter/combiner circuits configured this way are known as “corporate” networks. When a non-binary number of divisions is required, a “serial” network must be used. Serial networks can be designed with [3, 4, 5, ….., n] splits, but have a practical limitation of about 8 splits. A 5dB coupler is used in conjunction with a 3dB coupler to build 3-way splitter/combiner networks. An ideal version of this network is illustrated below. Note what is required; a 50% split (i.e. 3dB coupler) and a 66% and 33% split (which is actually a 4.77dB coupler, but due to losses in the system, higher coupler values, such as 5dB, are actually better suited for this function). The design of this type of circuit requires special attention to the losses and phase lengths of the components and the interconnecting lines. A more in depth look at serial networks can be found in the article “Designing In-Line Divider/Combiner Networks” by Samir Tozin, which describes the circuit design in detail and can be found in the White Papers Section of the Anaren website, www.anaren.com. 3-Way Splitter/Combiner Pin 5 dB (4.77) coupler 1/3 Pin 1/3 Pin * 50Ω Termination 3 dB coupler G=1 2/3 Pin * 50Ω Termination 1/3 Pin 2/3 Pin 1/3 Pin G=1 3 dB coupler * 50Ω Termination * 50Ω Termination 5 dB (4.77) coupler 1/3 Pin 1/3 Pin Pout G=1 *Recommended Terminations Power (Watts) Model 8 RFP-060120A15Z50 15 RFP-250375A4Z50 50 RFP-375375A6Z50 100 RFP-500500A6Z50 Available on Tape and Reel for Pick and Place Manufacturing.

A signal applied to port 1 is split and appears at the two output ports, ports 3 & 4, with equal amplitude and in phase quadrature. If ports 3 & 4 are not perfectly matched to 50Ω there will be some signal reflected back into the coupler. If the magnitude and angle of these reflections are equal, there will be two signals that are equal in amplitude and in phase quadrature (i.e. the reflected signals) being applied to ports 3 & 4 as inputs. These reflected signals will combine at the isolated port and will cancel at the input port. So, terminations with the same mismatch placed at the outputs of the 3dB coupler will not reflect back to the input port and therefore will not affect input return loss. Γ× 0.707V ∠θ Γ (0.5V ∠2θ + 0.5V ∠2θ -180) = 0V 0.707V∠θ (-3dB) 4 1V Termination = ZL 1 Γ= Isolated Port 2 ZL − Z 0 ZL + Z 0 Termination = ZL 3 |Γ (0.5V ∠2θ -90 + 0.5V ∠2θ -90)| = |Γ| 0.707V ∠θ -90 (-3dB) Γ× 0.707V ∠θ -90 The reflection property of common mismatches in 3dB couplers is very beneficial to the operation of many networks. For instance, when splitter/combiner networks are employed to increase output power by paralleling transistors with similar reflection coefficients, input return loss is not degraded by the match of the transistor circuit. The reflections from the transistor circuits are directed away from the input to the termination at the isolated port of the coupler. This example is not limited to Power Amplifiers. In the case of Low Noise Amplifiers (LNA’s), the reflection property of 3dB couplers is again beneficial. The transistor devices used in LNA’s will present different reflection coefficients depending on the bias level. The bias level that yields the best noise performance does not also provide the best match to 50 Ω. A circuit that is optimized for both noise performance and return loss can be achieved by combining two matched LNA transistor devices using 3dB couplers. The devices can be biased for the best noise performance and the reflection property of the couplers will provide a good match as described above. An example of this circuit is illustrated below: LNA Circuit Leveraging the Reflection Property of 3dB Couplers 50Ω Termination Input 50Ω Termination Energy reflected from LNA devices biased for optimum noise performance USA/Canada: Toll Free: Europe: (315) 432-8909 (800) 411-6596 +44 2392-232392 Output Amplitude and phase tracking LNA devices biased for optimum noise performance Available on Tape and Reel for Pick and Place Manufacturing. Model XMC2560E-03 Rev B Signal Control Circuits Utilizing 3dB Couplers Variable attenuators and phase shifter are two examples of signal control circuits that can be built using 3dB couplers. Both of these circuits also use the reflection property of the 3dB coupler as described above. In the variable attenuator circuit, the two output ports of a 3dB coupler are terminated with PIN diodes, which are basically a voltage variable resistor at RF frequencies (consult the literature on PIN diodes for a more complete equivalent circuit). By changing the resistance at the output ports of the 3dB coupler, the reflection coefficient, Γ, will also change and different amounts of energy will be reflected to the isolated port (note that the resistances must change together so that Γ is the same for both output ports). A signal applied to the input of the 3dB coupler will appear at the isolated port and the amplitude of this signal will be a function of the resistance at the output ports. This circuit is illustrated below: Variable Attenuator Circuit Utilizing a 3dB Coupler Γ× 0.707V ∠θ 4 Input 1 Vdc Output 0.707V∠θ (-3dB) PIN Diodes 2 |Γ (0.5V ∠2θ -90 + 0.5V ∠2θ -90)| = |Γ| and |Output| = | Γ|×|Input| 3 0.707V ∠θ -90 (-3dB) Γ× 0.707V ∠θ -90 If Γ=0, no energy is reflected from the PIN diodes and S21 = 0 (input to output). If | Γ | =1, all of the energy is reflected from the PIN diodes and |S21| = 1 (assuming the ideal case of no loss). The ideal range for Γ is –1 to 0 or 0 to 1, which translate to resistances of 0Ω to 50Ω and 50Ω to ∞Ω respectively. Either range can be selected, although normally 0Ω to 50Ω is easier to achieve in practice and produces better results. Many papers have been written on this circuit and should be consulted for the details of design and operation. Another very similar circuit is a Variable Phase Shifter (illustrated below). The same theory is applied but instead of PIN diodes (variable RF resistance), the coupler outputs are terminated with varactors. The ideal varactor is a variable capacitor with the capacitance value changing as a function of the DC bias. Ideally, the magnitude of the reflection coefficient is 1 for these devices at all bias levels. However, the angle of the reflected signal does change as the capacitance changes with bias level. So, ideally all of the energy applied to port 1, in the circuit illustrated below, will be reflected at the varactors and will sum at port 2 (the isolated port of the coupler). However, the phase angle of the signal will be variable with the DC bias level. In practice, neither the varactors nor the coupler are ideal and both will have some losses. Again, many papers have been written on this circuit and should be consulted for the details of design and operation. Available on Tape and Reel for Pick and Place Manufacturing.
