ADC DRIVING APPLICATION
The ADL5534 is a high linearity, fixed gain IF amplifier suitable
for use as an ADC driver. The ADL5534 has a differential input
and output impedance of 100 Ω. A flux-coupled RF transformer
with a 2:1 impedance ratio was used to perform the single-ended-
to-differential conversion at the input of the ADL5534. The
interface between the ADL5534 and the AD9640 is a third-
order low pass filter presenting a 100 Ω differential impedance
to the source and load. The ADL5534 must be ac-coupled to
prevent dc bias from entering the inputs of the ADC. Capacitors
of 100 pF were chosen to reduce any low frequency noise coming
from the ADL5534 and provide dc blocking. The measured
results for this interface shows 0.5 dB insertion loss for a 20 MHz
bandwidth centered around 92 MHz. The wideband response for
the interface is shown in Figure 20. The single-tone results in
Figure 21 show an SNR of 69.3 dB and an SFDR of 82 dBc. The
two-tone results in Figure 22 show an IMD3 of 80.5 dBc and
an SFDR of 78 dBc.

SOLDERING INFORMATION AND RECOMMENDED
PCB LAND PATTERN
Figure 23 shows the recommended land pattern for ADL5534.
To minimize thermal impedance, the exposed paddle on the
package underside should be soldered down to a ground plane.
If multiple ground layers exist, they should be stitched together
using vias. Pin 1 to Pin 4, Pin 6, Pin 9 to Pin 11, and Pin 14 to
Pin 15 can be left unconnected, or can be connected to ground.
Connecting these pins to ground improves device-to-device
isolation and slightly enhances thermal impedance. For more
information on land pattern design and layout, refer to the
AN-772 Application Note, A Design and Manufacturing Guide for
the Lead Frame Chip Scale Package (LFCSP).

EVALUATION BOARD
Figure 24 shows the schematic for the ADL5534 evaluation
board. The board is powered by a single 5 V supply. The
components used on the board are listed in Table 6.
Transformers (T1 and T2) are provided so the ADL5534
can be configured as a balanced amplifier. Applying 5 V to
VPOS biases the amplifier corresponding to RFIN1 and
RFOUT1. Applying 5 V to VPOS1 biases the amplifier
corresponding to RFIN2 and RFOUT2. To bias both amplifiers
from a single supply, connect 5 V to VPOS or VPOS1 and
attach a jumper across W3.
