Model X3DC08E2S RevB Insertion Loss and Power Derating Curves Insertion Loss Derating: Power Derating: The insertion loss, at a given frequency, of a group of Xinger parts is measured at 25°C and then averaged. The measurements are performed under small signal conditions (i.e. using a Vector Network Analyzer). The process is repeated at 85°C and 150°C. A best-fit line for the measured data is computed and then plotted from -55°C to 150°C. The power handling and corresponding power derating plots are a function of the thermal resistance, mounting surface temperature (base plate temperature), maximum continuous operating temperature of the coupler, and the thermal insertion loss. The thermal insertion loss is defined in the Power Handling section of the data sheet. As the mounting interface temperature approaches the maximum continuous operating temperature, the power handling decreases to zero. If mounting temperature is greater than 95°C, Xinger coupler will perform reliably as long as the input power is derated to the curve above.

The following specification definition assumes the extra port extension is deembeded from the raw S parameter and the parts is measured with Pin n connected to Port n (where n=1, 2, 3, 4). • Maximum power condition Under the maximum power condition, the symmetrical Doherty architecture requires main amplifier and peak amplifier to work at full capacity with the optimum termination (50 Ω). The two amplifiers should deliver RF power of equal magnitude and 90 degree phase difference. Doherty combiner functions as a coherent power combiner and supplies the 90 degree phase compensation. The following specification is defined with 50 Ω port impedance at three ports for this condition. Parameter Definition Return Loss The impedance match at the combining port to a 50Ω system. Insertion Loss Phase Imbalance Amplitude Imbalance • The combined power divided by the sum of input power under the perfect combining condition. The phase difference between Peak-Combined path and Main-Combined path at ωc = 881MHz The magnitude difference between Peak-Combined path and Main-Combined path. Mathematical Representation S11 20log (S 10log Phase 2 13 2 + S14 ) (S14 (ωc )) – Phase (S13 (ωc )) (20log S 14 − 20log S13 ) 2 Low power condition Under low power condition, the Doherty operation turns off peak amplifier and requires main amplifier to be terminated with double of the optimum impedance (100 Ω). With the peak port open, Doherty combiner servers as an impedance transformer transforming 50 Ω at combining port to 100 Ω at main amplifier port. The following specification is defined under the port impedance condition of Port 1 (Combining Port) 50 Ω, Port 4 (Main Amp Port) 100 Ω and Port 3 (Peak Amp Port) open. Parameter Definition Return Loss The impedance match of the 50 to100 Ω transformer. 20log S11 Insertion Loss The output power divided by input power. 20log S 41 USA/Canada: Toll Free: Europe: (315) 432-8909 (800) 411-6596 +44 2392-232392 Available on Tape and Reel for Pick and Place Manufacturing.
