ADL9005-EVALZ Evaluation Kit

Analog Devices Inc. ADL9005-EVALZ Evaluation Kit evaluates the wideband GaAs pseudomorphic high-electron mobility transistor (pHEMT) ADL9005 low-noise amplifier for all its full functionalities and features. This evaluation kit consists of a 2-layer printed circuit board (PCB) fabricated from 0.254 mm-thick Rogers 4350B laminate with copper cladding, mounted on an aluminium heat spreader. The heat spreader assists in providing thermal relief to the device as well as mechanical support to the PCB. The RF_IN and RF_OUT ports on the ADL9005-EVALZ are populated with 2.9mm female coaxial connectors and the respective RF traces with a 50Ω characteristic impedance. The ADL9005-EVALZ kit is populated with components suitable for use over the entire −40°C to 85°C operating temperature range of the ADL9005 LNA.
