Application Schematic
Single Bias Operation
Connecting V_DD to pin 4 using an external resistor
R_B enables single bias operation of the amplifier,
where the value of external resistor R_B can be used
to set the desired I_DD.
In this configuration, power down mode cannot be
used unless a switch is included to connect V_B to
ground.
Grounding
It is recommended that the total ground (common
mode) inductance not exceed 0.03 nH (30 pH). This
is equivalent to placing at least four 8-mil (200-μm)
diameter vias under the device, assuming an 8-mil
(200-μm) thick RF layer to ground.
