Description
The X3DC35P1S is a low profile, high performance Doherty Combiner
in a new easy to use, manufacturing friendly surface mount package.
The X3DC35P1S is designed particularly for Doherty Amplifier
applications, where tightly controlled phase and amplitude imbalance as
well as low insertion loss are required for maximum and low power
condition. It can be used in high power applications up to 40 watts.
Parts have been subjected to rigorous qualification testing and they are
manufactured using materials with coefficients of thermal expansion
(CTE) compatible with common substrates such as FR4, G-10, RF-35,
RO4350 and polyimide. Produced with 6 of 6 RoHS compliant tin
immersion finish

There are inevitably short lines associating with input ports in some high frequency band parts. The length of the
short line is specified as electrical length at center frequency and noted as port extension in this datasheet. The
designer should take this length into the consideration to optimize the offset line length.

Definition of the Specifications
To guarantee the part performance in Doherty architecture, the part is specified in Doherty operation for maximum
power condition and low power condition. The following specification definition assumes the extra port extension is
already applied to 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. The return loss and the insertion loss in max power mode are not affected by the 50 ohm lossless port rotation
mentioned in electrical spec table in page 1. The phase imbalance and the amplitude imbalance are not affected either
since port rotation are taken off equally from the main and the peak amp port.

 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). In this configuration, 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. With the peak amp left off, the extra line length in that port (see figure in page 2) acts as an open stub
which shifts the low power mode return loss null and insertion loss. The offset line length needs to be adjusted taking the
port rotation number into consideration so that the junction of 50 Ω and 35 Ω transmission line sees high impedance
instead of the part edge. The return loss and the insertion loss defined below are after the offset line adjustments
specified in the spec table.

X3DC35P1S Mounting Footprint
Doherty power amplifiers are capable of amplifying the
signals of high Peak to Average Ratio (PAR) with high
efficiency. A 1:1 symmetrical Doherty architecture is
typically used for signals of 6-10dB PAR.
To evaluate power handling capability, the doherty
combiner is analyzed in different conditions of varying
PAR that the component would see in its lifetime.
Condition 1: In symmetrical Doherty application, at
average power condition, the Doherty amplifier works at
back off mode and turns on only main amplifier with half
of its full power capacity. The thermal condition of Anaren
Doherty combiner is evaluated as an impedance
transformer.
X3DC35P1S can handle reliably for life 20 watts at main
amplifier and 0 watts at peak amplifier when evaluated as
impedance transformer.

PRELIMINARY
Condition 2: Doherty amplifier ramps up the main
amplifier to 65% its full power capacity and peak amplifier
to 30% of its full power capacity, outputting power
roughly 3dB above the average. The thermal condition of
Anaren Doherty combiner is analyzed as a coherent
combiner and such power level is assumed continuously
over entire life span of the component. Although
conservative and limit the components power rating, it is
done so to guarantee the life time of the components
over high PAR signals.
X3DC35P1S can handle reliably for life 26 watts at main
amplifier and 12 watts at peak amplifier when evaluated
for condition 2.
Condition 3: Signals of 3dB and above the average
power occur with low probability and short duration and
they do not present thermal risk. With high breakdown
voltage, Anaren Doherty combiners can safely withstand
at least 12dB peaks over the average rated power.
X3DC35P1S can handle reliably for life 40 watts at main
amplifier and 40 watts at peak amplifier when evaluated
for peak pulses of very short duration.
The power handlings of Anaren Doherty combiners are
conservatively rated at averaged power with high PAR
signal and Doherty operation in mind. The combiners
can be used in Doherty amplifiers of rated average output
power. No further power derating for high PAR signals is
required
