ADL8140-EVALZ

ADL8140-EVALZ is an evaluation board to evaluate the ADL8140 GaAs, pHEMT, MMIC, low noise amplifier, 10GHz to 18GHz. This is a 4-layer printed circuit board (PCB) fabricated from 8mil thick, Rogers 4003C and Isola 370HR, copper clad, forming a nominal thickness of 62mils. The RFIN and RFOUT ports on the ADL8140-EVALZ are populated with female coaxial 2.9mm connectors, and the corresponding RF traces have a 50 ohm characteristic impedance. The ADL8140-EVALZ is populated with components suitable for use over the entire -55°C to +125°C operating temperature range of the ADL8140. Connect ground and power to ADL8140-EVALZ using the surface mount technology (SMT) test point connectors, GND and VDD. A supplementary test point for VBIAS is included for simple access on the RBIAS pin.
