Evaluation PCB
The circuit board used in the application should
be generated with proper RF circuit design tech-
niques. Signal lines at the RF port should have
50 Ohm impedance and the package ground leads
and package bottom should be connected directly
to the ground plane similar to that shown above. The
evaluation circuit board shown above is available
from Hittite Microwave Corporation upon request.
