GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The ADTR1107-EVA L evaluation board consists of a two-layer
printed circuit board (PCB) fabricated from a 10 mil thick,
Rogers 4350B copper clad mounted to an aluminum heat sink.
The heat sink assists in providing thermal relief to the device as
well as mechanical support to the PCB. Mounting holes on the
heat sink allow attachment to larger heat sinks for improved
thermal management.

The TX_IN, ANT, RX_OUT, and CPLR_OUT ports are
populated by 2.9 mm, female coaxial connectors. The respective
RF traces of the ports have a 50 Ω characteristic impedance.
The ADTR1107-E VA L is populated with components suitable
for use over the −40°C to +85°C operating temperature range of
the ADTR1107. To calibrate board trace losses, a through
calibration path is provided. Howe ver, to use the through
calibration path, users must install and populate the path with
RF connectors.

Access to drain, ground, and gate control voltages is through
two, 24-pin headers.

RF traces are 50 Ω grounded, coplanar waveguide. Package
ground leads and the exposed paddle connect directly to the
ground plane. Multiple vias connect the top and bottom ground
planes with particular focus on the area directly beneath the
ground paddle to provide adequate electrical conduction and
thermal conduction to the heat sink.
