The power supply pin should be decoupled using a 0.1 μF capacitor. The ENBL pin is tied to the positive supply or to 5 V (when VCC = 10 V) for normal operation and should be pulled to ground to put the device in sleep mode. Both the inputs and the outputs have dc bias levels at midsupply and should be ac-coupled.

Single-Ended Equivalent Circuit When the source impedance is smaller than the load impedance, a step-up matching network is required. A typical step-up network is shown on the input of the AD8350 in Figure 3. For purely resistive source and load impedances the resonant approach may be used. The input and output impedance of the AD8350 can be modeled as a real 200 Ω resistance for operating frequencies less than 100 MHz. For signal frequencies exceeding 100 MHz, classical Smith Chart matching techniques should be invoked in order to deal with the complex impedance relationships. Detailed S parameter data measured differentially in a 200 Ω system can be found in Tables II and III. LOAD 7 6 5 C4 0.001F AD8350 – For the input matching network the source resistance is less than the input resistance of the AD8350. The AD8350 has a nominal 200 Ω input resistance from Pins 1 to 8. The reactance of the ac-coupling capacitors, CAC, should be negligible if 100 nF capacitors are used and the lowest signal frequency is greater than 1 MHz. If the series reactance of the matching network inductor is defined to be XS = 2 π f LS, and the shunt reactance of the matching capacitor to be XP = (2 π f CP)–1, then: Z = 200 + 1 Z = 200 C1 0.001F ENBL (5V) CAC 0.1F Figure 2 shows how the AD8350 can be driven by a singleended source. The unused input should be ac-coupled to ground. When driven single-endedly, there will be a slight imbalance in the differential output voltages. This will cause an increase in the second order harmonic distortion (at 50 MHz, with VCC = 10 V and VOUT = 1 V p-p, –59 dBc was measured for the second harmonic on AD8350-15).

Basic Connections for Single-Ended Drive Reactive Matching RS × RLOAD where X P = RLOAD × XP RS RLOAD – RS (1) For a 70 MHz application with a 50 Ω source resistance, and assuming the input impedance is 200 Ω, or RLOAD = RIN = 200 Ω, then XP = 115.5 Ω and XS = 86.6 Ω, which results in the following component values: In practical applications, the AD8350 will most likely be matched using reactive matching components as shown in Figure 3. Matching components can be calculated using a Smith Chart or by using a resonant approach to determine the matching network that results in a complex conjugate match. In either situation, the circuit can be analyzed as a single-ended equivalent circuit to ease calculations as shown in Figure 4. CP = (2 π × 70 × 106 × 115.5)–1 = 19.7 pF and LS = 86.6 × (2 π × 70 × 106)–1 = 197 nH –8– REV.C AD8350 For the output matching network, if the output source resistance of the AD8350 is greater than the terminating load resistance, a step-down network should be employed as shown on the output of Figure 3. For a step-down matching network, the series and parallel reactances are calculated as: RS × RLOAD where X P = RS × XP XS = RLOAD RS – RLOAD (2) The same results could be found using a Smith Chart as shown in Figure 7. In this example, a shunt capacitor and a series inductor are used to match the 200 Ω source to a 50 Ω load. For a frequency of 10 MHz, the same capacitor and inductor values previously found using the resonant approach will transform the 200 Ω source to match the 50 Ω load. At frequencies exceeding 100 MHz, the S parameters from Tables II and III should be used to account for the complex impedance relationships. For a 10 MHz application with the 200 Ω output source resistance of the AD8350, RS = 200 Ω, and a 50 Ω load termination, RLOAD = 50 Ω, then XP = 115.5 Ω and X S = 86.6 Ω, which results in the following component values: CP = (2 π × 10 × 106 × 115.5)–1 = 138 pF and LS = 86.6 × (2 π × 10 × 106)–1 = 1.38 μH LOAD The same results can be obtained using the plots in Figure 5 and Figure 6. Figure 5 shows the normalized shunt reactance versus the normalized source resistance for a step-up matching network, RS < RLOAD. By inspection, the appropriate reactance can be found for a given value of RS/RLOAD. The series reactance is then calculated using XS = RS RLOAD/XP. The same technique can be used to design the step-down matching network using Figure 6. SOURCE SHUNT C SERIES L NORMALIZED REACTANCE – XP /RLOAD 2 1.8 Figure 7. Smith Chart Representation of Step-Down Network RSOURCE XS 0.8 After determining the matching network for the single-ended equivalent circuit, the matching elements need to be applied in a differential manner. The series reactance needs to be split such that the final network is balanced. In the previous examples, this simply translates to splitting the series inductor into two equal halves as shown in Figure 3. 0.6 Gain Adjustment 1.6 RLOAD XP 1.4 1.2 1 0.4 0 0.01 0.05 0.09 0.13 0.17 0.21 0.25 0.29 0.33 0.37 0.41 0.45 0.49 0.53 0.57 0.61 0.65 0.69 0.73 0.77 0.2 NORMALIZED SOURCE RESISTANCE – RSOURCE /R LOAD Figure 5.

Obviously a matched attenuator network will reduce the effective gain, but this requires the addition of a separate component which can be prohibitive in size and cost. The attenuator will also increase the effective noise figure resulting in an SNR degradation. A simple voltage divider can be implemented using the combination of the driving impedance of the previous stage and a shunt resistor across the inputs of the AD8350 as shown in Figure 8. This provides a compact solution but suffers from an increased noise spectral density at the input of the AD8350 due to the thermal noise contribution of the shunt resistor. The input impedance can be dynamically altered through the use of feedback resistors as shown in Figure 9. This will result in a similar attenuation of the input signal by virtue of the voltage divider established from the driving source impedance and the reduced input impedance of the AD8350. Yet this technique does not significantly degrade the SNR with the unnecessary increase in thermal noise that arises from a truly resistive attenuator network.

Dynamic Gain Reduction 0 0 Figure 8 shows a typical implementation of the shunt divider concept. The reduced input impedance that results from the parallel combination of the shunt resistor and the input impedance of the AD8350 adds attenuation to the input signal effectively reducing the gain. For frequencies less than 100 MHz, the input impedance of the AD8350 can be modeled as a real 200 Ω resistance (differential). Assuming the frequency is low enough to ignore the shunt reactance of the input, and high enough such that the reactance of moderately sized ac-coupling capacitors can be considered negligible, the insertion loss, IL, due to the shunt divider can be expressed as: ⎡ ⎤ RIN ⎢ ⎥ ( R IN + RS ) ⎥ IL ( dB ) = 20 × Log10 ⎢ RIN RSHUNT ⎢ ⎥ ⎢⎣ ( RIN RSHUNT + RS ) ⎥⎦ where RIN RSHUNT 100 200 300 400 500 RSHUNT – 600 700 800 Figure 10. Gain for Multiple Values of Shunt Resistance for Circuit in Figure 8 The gain can be adjusted dynamically by employing external feedback resistors as shown in Figure 9. The effective attenuation is a result of the lowered input impedance as with the shunt resistor method, yet there is no additional noise contribution at the input of the device. It is necessary to use well-matched resistors to minimize common-mode offset errors. Quality 1% tolerance resistors should be used along with a symmetric board layout to help guarantee balanced performance. The effective gain for multiple values of external feedback resistors is shown in Figure 11.

Often it is desirable to try to achieve a complex conjugate match between the source and load in order to minimize reflections and conserve power. But if the AD8350 is driving a voltage responding device, such as an ADC, it is no longer necessary to maximize power transfer. The harmonic distortion performance will actually improve when driving loads greater than 200 Ω. The lighter load requires less current driving capability on the output stages of the AD8350 resulting in improved linearity. Figure 12 shows the improvement in second and third harmonic distortion for increasing differential load resistance. 18 AD8350-20 16 GAIN – dB 14 12 10 AD8350-15 8 6 4 2 0 0 500 1000 RFEXT – 1500 2000 –66 Figure 11.

The effective gain will change if the differential source and load impedance is not 200 Ω. The singleended input and output resistance of the AD8350 can be modeled using the following equations: HD3 –72 –74 –76 –78 RIN RF + RL = ⎛ RF + RL ⎞ ⎜ ⎟ + 1 + gm × RL ⎝ RINT ⎠ HD2 –80 (4) –82 200 300 400 500 600 700 800 900 1000 RLOAD – and 1 1 1 + RS RINT = ⎛ ⎜ 1 1 + gm × ⎜ 1 1 ⎜ + ⎝ RS RINT Figure 12.
