THEORY OF OPERATION
The ADL5721 is a narrow-band, high performance, low noise
amplifier targeting microwave radio link receiver designs. The
monolithic SiGe design is optimized for microwave radio link
bands ranging from 5.9 GHz to 8.5 GHz.
The unique design of the ADL5721 offers a single-ended 50 Ω
input impedance and provides a 100balanced differential
output. This LNA is ideal for driving Analog Devices differential
downconverters and RF sampling ADCs.
The ADL5721 provides cost-effective noise figure performance
without requiring more expensive III-V compounds process
technolog y.
This LNA uses a band switch feature to allow the input P1dB
and noise figure to trade off for optimum system performance.
The BAND pin allows the user to select between two frequency
ranges. A logic low of 0 V on the BAND pin selects the lower
frequency range from 5.9 GHz to 7.2 GHz, whereas a logic high
of 1.8 V selects the higher frequency range from 7.1 GHz to
8.5 GHz.
The ADL5721 is available in an 8-lead, 2.00 mm × 2.00 mm
LFCSP package, and operates over the temperature range of
−40°C to +85°C.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
LAYOUT
Solder the exposed pad on the underside of the ADL5721 to a
low thermal and electrical impedance ground plane. This pad is
typically soldered to an exposed opening in the solder mask on
the evaluation board. Connect these ground vias to all other
ground layers on the evaluation board to maximize heat
dissipation from the device package.

DIFFERENTIAL vs. SINGLE-ENDED OUTPUT
This section provides the test results that compare the ADL5721
using a differential vs. a single-ended output. When using the
device as a single-ended output, use the RFOP output of the
evaluation board and terminate RFON to 50 Ω. Note that the
converse can be done as well; however, doing so produces slightly
different results from the plots shown in this section, caused by
some amplitude imbalance between the two differential ports,
RFOP and RFON. The output trace and connector loss were not
deembedded for these measurements.
Note that this performance is typical and not guaranteed.
