The 1-dB compression point is measured with a
spectrum analyzer with 50-Ω double termination or
100-Ω termination; see Table 2. The input power is
increased until the output is 1 dB lower than
expected. The number reported in the table data is
the power delivered to the spectrum analyzer input.
Add 3 dB to refer to the amplifier output.
S-Parameter, Slew Rate, Transient Response,
Settling Time, Output Impedance, Overdrive,
Output Voltage, and Turn-On/Off Time
The circuit shown in Figure 73 is used to measure s-
parameters, slew rate, transient response, settling
time, output impedance, overdrive recovery, output
voltage swing, and turn-on/turn-off times of the
amplifier. For output impedance, the signal is injected
at V_OUT with V_IN left open and the drop across the
49.9-Ω resistor is used to calculate the impedance
seen looking into the amplifier output.
Because S₂₁ is measured single-ended at the load
with 50-Ω double termination, add 12 dB to refer to
the amplifier’s output as a differential signal.

CM Input
The circuit shown in Figure 74 is used to measure the
frequency response and input impedance of the CM
input. Frequency response is measured single-ended
at V_OUT+ or V_OUT– with the input injected at V_IN, R_CM =
0 Ω and R_CMT = 49.9 Ω. The input impedance is
measured with R_CM = 49.9 Ω with R_CMT = open, and
calculated by measuring the voltage drop across R_CM
to determine the input current.
