PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The AD8353 is a broadband, fixed-gain linear amplifier that operates at frequencies from 100 MHz up to 2.7 GHz. It is intended for use in a wide variety of wireless devices including cellular, broadband, CATV, and LMDS/MMDS applications.
By taking advantage of Analog Devices’ high-performance complementary Si bipolar process, these gain blocks provide excellent stability over process, temperature, and power supply. This amplifier is single-ended and internally matched to 50 with a return loss of greater than 10 dB over the full operating frequency range.
The AD8353 provides linear output power of 9 dBm of gain at 900 MHz when biased at 3 V and an choke is connected between the power supply and the output pin. The dc supply current is 42 mA. At 900 MHz, order intercept (OIP3) is greater than 23 dBm, at 2.7 GHz.

The AD8353 can also operate with a 5 V power supply, in which case no external inductor is required. Under these conditions, the AD8353 delivers 8 dBm with 20 dB of gain at 900 MHz. The dc supply current is 42 mA. At 900 MHz, the OIP3 is greater than 22 dBm and is 19 dBm at 2.7 GHz. The noise figure is 5.6 dB at 900 MHz. The reverse isolation (S
The AD8353 is fabricated on Analog Devices’ proprietary, high­performance 25 GHz Si complementary bipolar IC process. The AD8353 is available in a chip scale package that utilizes an exposed paddle for excellent thermal impedance and low imped­ance electrical connection to ground. It operates over a –40°C to +85°C temperature range.
An evaluation board is available.

CAUTION
ESD (electrostatic discharge) sensitive device. Electrostatic charges as high as 4000 V readily accumulate on the human body and test equipment and can discharge without detection. Although the AD8353 features proprietary ESD protection circuitry, permanent damage may occur on devices subjected to high-energy electrostatic discharges. Therefore, proper ESD precautions are recommended to avoid performance degradation or loss of functionality.

AD8353
THEORY OF OPERATION
The AD8353 is a two-stage feedback amplifier employing both shunt-series and shunt-shunt feedback. The first stage is degen­erated and resistively loaded, and provides approximately 10 dB of gain. The second stage is a PNP-NPN Darlington output stage, which provides another 10 dB of gain. Series-shunt feed­back from the emitter of the output transistor sets the input
APPLICATIONS
The AD8353 RF Gain Block may be used as a general purpose fixed-gain amplifier in a wide variety of applications, such as a driver for a transmitter power amplifier (Figure 1). Its excellent reverse isolation also makes this amplifier suitable for use as a local oscillator buffer amplifier that would drive the local oscilla-
tor port of an up or down converter mixer (Figure 2). impedance to 50 over a broad frequency range. Shunt-shunt feedback from the amplifier output to the input of the Darlington stage helps to set the output impedance to 50 . The amplifier can be operated from a 3 V supply by adding a choke inductor from the amplifier output to VPOS. Without
this choke induc-
tor, operation from a 5 V supply is also possible.
BASIC CONNECTIONS
The AD8353 RF Gain Block is a fixed-gain amplifier with single-ended input and output ports whose impedances are nominally equal to 50 over the frequency range 100 MHz to
2.7 GHz. Consequently, it can be directly inserted into a 50 system with no impedance-matching circuitry required. The input and output impedances are sufficiently stable versus variations in temperature and supply voltage that no impedance matching compensation is required. A complete set of scattering parameters is available at the Analog Devices website (www.analog.com).
The input pin (INPT) is connected directly to the base of the first amplifier stage, which is internally biased to approximately 1 V, so a dc-blocking capacitor should be connected between the source that drives the AD8353 and the input pin, INPT.
INPUT
It is critical to supply very low inductance ground connections to the ground pins (pins 1, 4, 5, and 8) as well as to the back­side exposed paddle. This will ensure stable operation.
The AD8353 is designed to operate over a wide supply voltage range, from 2.7 V to 5.5 V. The output of the part, VOUT, is taken directly from the collector of the output amplifier stage. This node is internally biased to approximately 2.2 V when the supply voltage is 5 V. Consequently, a dc-blocking capacitor should be connected between the output pin, VOUT, and the load that it drives. The value of this capacitor is not critical, but it should be 100 pF or larger.
When the supply voltage is 3 V, it is recommended that an external RF choke be connected between the supply voltage and
EVALUATION BOARD
Figure 3 shows the schematic of the AD8353 evaluation board.
Note that L1 is shown as an optional component that is used to
obtain maximum gain only when VP = 3 V. The board is powered
by a single supply in the range 2.7 V to 5.5 V. The power supply
is decoupled by a 0.47 µF and a 100 pF capacitor.
the output pin, VOUT. This will increase the dc voltage applied to the collector of the output amplifier stage, which will improve performance of the AD8353 to be very similar to the performance produced when 5 V is used for the supply voltage. The inductance of the RF choke should be approximately 100 nH, and care should be taken to ensure that the lowest series self-resonant frequency
