COMPONENTS OF TEST CIRCUIT FOR MEASURING ELECTRICAL CHARACTERISTICS Type Value C1, C2 Chip Capacitor 100 pF C3 Chip Capacitor 1 000 pF C4 Feed-through Capacitor 1 000 pF CAPACITORS FOR THE VCC, INPUT AND OUTPUT PINS Capacitors of 1000 pF are recommendable as the bypass capacitor for the VCC pin and the coupling capacitors for the input and output pins. The bypass capacitor connected to the VCC pin is used to minimize ground impedance of VCC pin. So, stable bias can be supplied against VCC fluctuation. The coupling capacitors, connected to the input and output pins, are used to cut the DC and minimize RF serial impedance. Their capacitances are therefore selected as lower impedance against a 50 Ω load. The capacitors thus perform as high pass filters, suppressing low frequencies to DC. To obtain a flat gain from 100 MHz upwards, 1 000 pF capacitors are used in the test circuit. In the case of under 10 MHz operation, increase the value of coupling capacitor such as 10 000 pF. Because the coupling capacitors are determined by equation, C = 1/(2 πRfc). 6 Data Sheet PU10490EJ01V0DS UPC3224TB ILLUSTRATION OF THE TEST CIRCUIT ASSEMBLED ON EVALUATION BOARD AMP-2 IN OUT C1 C2 C3 VCC C4 COMPONENT LIST Value C1, C2 100 pF C3, C4 1 000 pF Notes 1. 30 × 30 × 0.4 mm double sided copper clad polyimide board. 2.
