Description  
The XC0900A-20 is a low profile, high performance 20dB directional  
coupler in a new easy to use, manufacturing friendly surface mount  
package. It is designed for AMPS band applications. The XC0900A-20 is  
designed particularly for power and frequency detection, as well as for  
VSWR monitoring, where tightly controlled coupling and low insertion loss  
is required. It can be used in high power applications up to 200 Watts.  
Parts have been subjected to rigorous qualification testing and they are  
manufactured using materials with coefficients of thermal expansion (CTE)  
compatible with common substrates such as FR4, G-10, RF-35, RO4350  
and polyimide.

Notes on RF Testing and Circuit Layout  
The XC0900A-20 Surface Mount Couplers require the use of a test fixture for verification of RF performance. This test  
fixture is designed to evaluate the coupler in the same environment that is recommended for installation. Enclosed  
inside the test fixture, is a circuit board that is fabricated using the recommended footprint. The part being tested is  
placed into the test fixture and pressure is applied to the top of the device using a pneumatic piston. A four port Vector  
Network Analyzer is connected to the fixture and is used to measure the S-parameters of the part. Worst case values  
for each parameter are found and compared to the specification. These worst case values are reported to the test  
equipment operator along with a Pass or Fail flag. See the illustrations below.

The effects of the test fixture on the measured data must be minimized in order to accurately determine the  
performance of the device under test. If the line impedance is anything other than 50and/or there is a discontinuity  
at the microstrip to SMA interface, there will be errors in the data for the device under test. The test environment can  
never be “perfect”, but the procedure used to build and evaluate the test boards (outlined below) demonstrates an  
attempt to minimize the errors associated with testing these devices. The lower the signal level that is being  
measured, the more impact the fixture errors will have on the data. Parameters such as Return Loss and  
Isolation/Directivity, which are specified as low as 27dB and typically measure at much lower levels, will present the  
greatest measurement challenge.  
The test fixture errors introduce an uncertainty to the measured data. Fixture errors can make the performance of the  
device under test look better or worse than it actually is. For example, if a device has a known return loss of 30dB and  
a discontinuity with a magnitude of –35dB is introduced into the measurement path, the new measured Return Loss  
data could read anywhere between –26dB and –37dB. This same discontinuity could introduce an insertion phase  
error of up to 1°.  
There are different techniques used throughout the industry to minimize the affects of the test fixture on the  
measurement data. Anaren uses the following design and de-embedding criteria:  
Test boards have been designed and parameters specified to provide trace impedances of 50  
±1. Furthermore, discontinuities at the SMA to microstrip interface are required to be less than  
–35dB and insertion phase errors (due to differences in the connector interface discontinuities  
and the electrical line length) should be less than ±0.25° from the median value of the four  
paths.  
A “Thru” circuit board is built. This is a two port, microstrip board that uses the same SMA to  
microstrip interface and has the same total length (insertion phase) as the actual test board. The  
“Thru” board must meet the same stringent requirements as the test board. The insertion loss  
and insertion phase of the “Thru” board are measured and stored. This data is used to  
completely de-embed the device under test from the test fixture. The de-embedded data is  
available in S-parameter form on the Anaren website (www.anaren.com).  
Note: The S-parameter files that are available on the anaren.com website include data for frequencies that are  
outside of the specified band. It is important to note that the test fixture is designed for optimum performance through  
2.3GHz. Some degradation in the test fixture performance will occur above this frequency and connector interface  
discontinuities of –25dB or more can be expected. This larger discontinuity will affect the data at frequencies above  
2.3GHz.  
Circuit Board Layout  
The dimensions for the Anaren test board are shown below. The test board is printed on Rogers RO4350 material  
that is 0.030” thick. Consider the case when a different material is used. First, the pad size must remain the same to  
accommodate the part. But, if the material thickness or dielectric constant (or both) changes, the reactance at the  
interface to the coupler will also change. Second, the linewidth required for 50will be different and this will introduce  
a step in the line at the pad where the coupler interfaces with the printed microstrip trace. Both of these conditions will  
affect the performance of the part. To achieve the specified performance, serious attention must be given to the  
design and layout of the circuit environment in which this component will be used.  
If a different circuit board material is used, an attempt should be made to achieve the same interface pad reactance  
that is present on the Anaren RO4350 test board. When thinner circuit board material is used, the ground plane will  
be closer to the pad yielding more capacitance for the same size interface pad. The same is true if the dielectric  
constant of the circuit board material is higher than is used on the Anaren test board. In both of these cases,  
narrowing the line before the interface pad will introduce a series inductance, which, when properly tuned, will  
compensate for the extra capacitive reactance. If a thicker circuit board or one with a lower dielectric constant is used,

the interface pad will have less capacitive reactance than the Anaren test board. In this case, a wider section of line  
before the interface pad (or a larger interface pad) will introduce a shunt capacitance and when properly tuned will  
match the performance of the Anaren test board.  
Notice that the board layout for the 3dB and 5dB couplers is different from that of the 10dB and 20dB couplers. The  
test board for the 3dB and 5dB couplers has all four traces interfacing with the coupler at the same angle. The test  
board for the 10dB and 20dB couplers has two traces approaching at one angle and the other two traces at a different  
angle. The entry angle of the traces has a significant impact on the RF performance and these parts have  
been optimized for the layout used on the test boards shown below.  
10 & 20dB Test Board  
3 & 5dB Test Board  
Testing Sample Parts Supplied on Anaren Test Boards  
If you have received a coupler installed on an Anaren produced microstrip test board, please remember to remove the  
loss of the test board from the measured data. The loss is small enough that it is not of concern for Return Loss and  
Isolation/Directivity, but it should certainly be considered when measuring coupling and calculating the insertion loss  
of the coupler. An S-parameter file for a “Thru” board (see description of “Thru” board above) will be supplied upon  
request. As a first order approximation, one should consider the following loss estimates:  
Frequency Band  
800 – 1000 MHz  
1700 – 2300 MHz  
Avg. Ins. Loss of Test Board @ 25°C  
~ 0.07dB  
~ 0.12dB  
For example, a 1900MHz, 10dB coupler on a test board may measure –10.30dB from input to the coupled port at  
some frequency, F1. When the loss of the test board is removed, the coupling at F1 becomes -10.18dB (-10.30dB +  
0.12dB). This compensation must be made to both the coupled and direct path measurements when calculating  
insertion loss.  
The loss estimates in the table above come from room temperature measurements. It is important to note that the  
loss of the test board will change with temperature. This fact must be considered if the coupler is to be evaluated at  
other temperatures.

Peak Power Handling  
High-Pot testing of these couplers during the qualification procedure resulted in a minimum breakdown voltage of  
1.7KV (minimum recorded value). This voltage level corresponds to a breakdown resistance capable of handling at  
least 12dB peaks over average power levels, for very short durations. The breakdown location consistently occurred  
across the air interface at the coupler contact pads (see illustration below). The breakdown levels at these points will  
be affected by any contamination in the gap area around these pads. These areas must be kept clean for optimum  
performance. It is recommended that the user test for voltage breakdown under the maximum operating conditions  
and over worst case modulation induced power peaking. This evaluation should also include extreme environmental  
conditions (such as high humidity).  
Orientation Marker  
A printed circular feature appears on the top surface of the coupler to designate Pin 1. This orientation marker is not  
intended to limit the use of the symmetry that these couplers exhibit but rather to facilitate consistent placement of  
these parts into the tape and reel package. This ensures that the components are always delivered with the same  
orientation. Refer to the table on page 2 of the data sheet for allowable pin configurations.  
Test Plan  
Xinger II couplers are manufactured in large panels and then separated. A sample population of parts is RF small  
signal tested at room temperature in the fixture described above. All parts are DC tested for shorts/opens. (See  
“Qualification Flow Chart” section for details on the accelerated life test procedures.)

Power Handling  
The average power handling (total input power) of a Xinger coupler is a function of:  
Internal circuit temperature.  
Unit mounting interface temperature.  
Unit thermal resistance  
Power dissipated within the unit.  
All thermal calculations are based on the following assumptions:

The coupler is excited at the input port with Pin (watts) of power. Assuming the coupler is not ideal, and that there are  
no radiation losses, power will exit the coupler at all four ports. Symbolically written, Pout(RL) is the power that is  
returned to the source because of impedance mismatch, Pout(ISO) is the power at the isolated port, Pout(CPL) is the  
power at the coupled port, and Pout(DC) is the power at the direct port.  
At Anaren, insertion loss is defined as the log of the input power divided by the sum of the power at the coupled and  
direct ports:  
Note: in this document, insertion loss is taken to be a positive number. In many places, insertion loss is written as a  
negative number. Obviously, a mere sign change equates the two quantities.

We notice that this insertion loss value includes the power lost because of return loss as well as power lost to the

For thermal calculations, we are only interested in the power lost “inside” the coupler. Since Pout(RL) is lost in the  
source termination and Pout(ISO) is lost in an external termination, they are not be included in the insertion loss for  
thermal calculations. Therefore, we define a new insertion loss value solely to be used for thermal calculations:

The maximum allowable circuit temperature is defined by the properties of the materials used to construct the unit.  
Multiple material combinations and bonding techniques are used within the Xinger II product family to optimize RF  
performance. Consequently the maximum allowable circuit temperature varies. Please note that the circuit  
temperature is not a function of the Xinger case (top surface) temperature. Therefore, the case temperature cannot  
be used as a boundary condition for power handling calculations.  
Due to the numerous board materials and mounting configurations used in specific customer configurations, it is the  
end users responsibility to ensure that the Xinger II coupler mounting interface temperature is maintained within the  
limits defined on the power derating plots for the required average power handling. Additionally appropriate solder  
composition is required to prevent reflow or fatigue failure at the RF ports. Finally, reliability is improved when the  
mounting interface and RF port temperatures are kept to a minimum.  
The power-derating curve illustrates how changes in the mounting interface temperature result in converse changes  
of the power handling of the coupler.

Overall ground is improved if a dense population of  
plated through holes connect the top and bottom ground  
layers of the PCB. This minimizes ground inductance  
and improves ground continuity. All of the Xinger hybrid

Mounting to “hard” substrates (alumina etc.) is possible  
depending upon operational temperature requirements.

Solder Paste: All conventional solder paste formulations  
will work well with Anaren’s Xinger II surface mount  
components. Solder paste can be applied with stencils or

Reflow: The surface mount coupler is conducive to most of  
today’s conventional reflow methods. A low and high  
temperature thermal reflow profile are shown in Figures 5  
and 6, respectively. Manual soldering of these components  
can be done with conventional surface mount non-contact  
hot air soldering tools. Board pre-heating is highly  
recommended for these selective hot air soldering  
methods. Manual soldering with conventional irons should  
be avoided.

Coupler Positioning: The surface mount coupler can  
be placed manually or with automatic pick and place

Directional Couplers and Sampling  
Directional couplers are often used in circuits that require the sampling of an arbitrary signal. Because they are  
passive, non-linear devices, Anaren directional couplers do not perturb the characteristics of the signal to be sampled,  
and can be used for frequency monitoring and/or measurement of RF power. An example of a sampling circuit is the  
reflectometer. The purpose of the reflectometer is to isolate and sample the incident and reflected signals from a  
mismatched load. A basic reflectometer circuit is shown in Figure ap.n.1-1.

Figure ap.n.1-1. A Reflectometer Circuit Schematic  
If the directional coupler has perfect directivity, then it is clear that VI is strictly a sample of the incident voltage Vinput  
,
and VR is strictly a sample of the wave that is reflected from the load. Since directivity is never perfect in practice, both  
VI and VR will contain samples of the input signal as well as the reflected signal. In that case,  
VI = C + CDTΓejθ  
Eq. ap.n.1-1  
and  
VR = CD + CTΓejφ  
Eq. ap.n.1-2  
where C is the coupling, D is the directivity, Γ is the complex reflection coefficient of the load, T is the transmission  
coefficient, and φ and θ are unknown phase delay differences caused by the interconnect lines on the test board. If we  
know VI and VR, we can easily calculate the reflection coefficient of the load. One should notice that in order to make  
forward and reverse measurements using only one coupler, the directivity must be really low. In specific customer  
applications, the preferred method for forward and reverse sampling is shown in Figure ap.n.1-2.

The isolator in Figure ap.n.1-2 prevents the reflected wave from exciting the directional coupler. A list of recommended  
terminations is shown in the figure.  
Directional Couplers in Feed-Forward Amplifier Applications  
Feed-forward amplifiers are widely used to reduce distortion due to nonlinearities in power amplifiers. Although the  
level and complexity of feed-forward amplifiers varies from one manufacturer to another, the basic building block for this  
linearization scheme remains the same. A basic feed-forward schematic is shown in Figure ap.n.2-1. The input signal  
is split in two using a hybrid coupler or power divider. The output of the main amplifier is sampled with a 20dB-30dB  
directional coupler. The XC0900A-20 is an excellent candidate for this sampling since it provides great return loss and  
directivity. The sampled signal, which consists of a sample of the original input signal plus some distortion, is inverted  
and then combined with the output of the first delay line. This procedure subtracts (through destructive interference) the  
sample of the original input signal, leaving only the distortion or error component. The error component is then  
amplified and combined with the output of the second delay line using another directional coupler. In many cases, a  
10dB coupler is used to combine the two signals. The XC0900A-10 is a perfect choice for this injection because it has  
tight coupling, superior directivity, and excellent match.

Figure ap.n.2-1. Generic Feed Forward Circuit Schematic  
Both directional couplers in the Figure ap.n.2-1 have one port terminated with a 50resistor. In order to achieve  
optimum performance, the termination must be chosen carefully. It is important to remember that a good termination  
will not only produce a good match at the input of the coupler, but will also maximize the isolation between the input port  
and isolated port. Furthermore, since the termination can potentially absorb high levels of power, its maximum power  
rating should be chosen accordingly. A list of recommended terminations is shown in Figure ap.n.2-1. For an ideal
