General Description  
Features  
Fully Assembled and Tested  
The MAX2055 evaluation kit (EV kit) simplifies the evalu-  
ation of the MAX2055 high-linearity, digitally controlled,

Connections and Setup  
This section provides a step-by-step guide to testing  
the basic functionality of the EV kit. As a general pre-  
caution to prevent damaging the outputs by driving  
high-VSWR loads, do not turn on DC power or RF  
signal generators until all connections are made.  
Gain Setting  
Connect the header pins for B4B0 to GND for maxi-  
mum gain (20dB typ). See Table 1 for other gain-  
setting configurations. To set a logic high on B4B0,  
leave the respective header pin unconnected as on-  
board resistors pull up the logic to +5V. To control  
B4B0 using external logic (voltage limits per the data  
sheet), ensure that +5V is applied to the chip. Failure  
to do so can cause the on-chip ESD diodes to draw  
significant current and can damage the part.  
*Enabling B4 disables B3 and the minimum attenuation is  
16dB.  
the generator to an output frequency of 70MHz, and  
set the generator power level to -15dBm.  
Testing the Supply Current  
1) Connect 50terminations to RF_IN and RF_OUT.  
2) With the DC supply disabled, set it to +5.0V (through  
a low internal resistance ammeter, if desired) and  
connect to the +5V and GND terminals on the EV kit.  
If available, set the current limit to 400mA.  
2) Connect the spectrum analyzer to the RF_OUT SMA  
connector. Set the spectrum analyzer to a center fre-  
quency of 70MHz and a total span of 1MHz.  
3) With the DC supply disabled, set it to +5.0V (through  
a low internal-resistance ammeter, if desired) and  
connect to the +5V and GND terminals on the EV kit.  
If available, set the current limit to 400mA.  
3) Enable the DC supply; the supply current should  
read approximately 250mA.  
4) Connect B4B0 to GND for 0dB attenuation.  
Testing the Power Gain  
1) Connect the RF signal generator to the RF_IN SMA  
connector. Do not turn on the generators output. Set  
5) Enable the DC supply, and then activate the RF gen-  
erators output. A 70MHz signal shown on the spec-

trum analyzer display should indicate a magnitude  
of approximately 5dBm. Be sure to account for  
external cable losses.  
Modifying the EV Kit  
The EV kit is easily configured for other topologies.  
For a single-ended amplifier input:  
6) (Optional) Gain can be determined with a network  
analyzer. This has the advantage of displaying gain  
over a swept frequency band, in addition to display-  
ing input and output return loss. Refer to the network  
analyzer manufacturers user manual for setup  
details.  
1) Remove T1 and place a low-inductance short circuit  
between the T1 surface-mount pads that connect  
capacitors C4 to C5.  
2) Add a 1000pF 0603 case style capacitor for C7.  
3) Change L2 to the same style and value inductor as  
L1 (330nH) noted in the Component List.  
Detailed Description  
Figure 1 shows the schematic for the MAX2055 EV kit.  
The EV kit is matched for operation up to 300MHz.  
Capacitors C1, C4, C5, C8, and C9 are DC-blocking

compensate for the higher L2 resistance).

capacitors for the RF_IN, ATTN  
, and RF_OUT ports.  
The EV kit also provides the ability for additional methods  
of testing by adding in the option for an interstage RF  
connection along with differential RF output connections.  
OUT  
To reduce the possibility of noise pickup, capacitors  
C2, C3, C10, C11, and C12 form the V decoupling  
CC  
network. Inductors L1L5 provide a method of biasing.  
Inductor L2 needs to handle the total IC current and  
have a DC resistance that is less than 0.2. If the DC  
resistance is higher than 0.2, the value of R1 may  
need to be adjusted down to maintain the nominal  
operating current. Inductors L4 and L5 are nonmagnet-  
ic coils that provide the output supply bias for the  
amplifier. Transformer T1 is used to convert the single-  
ended attenuator output to a differential signal. This  
technique results in an improved 2nd harmonic perfor-  
mance for the device. The amplifier can be driven single  
ended if the improved 2nd harmonic is not required  
(see Modifying the EV Kit section). Output transformer  
T2 enables single-ended measurements, in addition to  
providing common-mode rejection for the 2nd harmon-  
ic. Resistor R7 helps reduce video leakage during  
switching. Replace R7 with a 0resistor if video leak-  
age is not a concern.  
Layout Considerations  
The MAX2055 evaluation boards can be used as a guide  
for your board layout. Give close attention to thermal  
design and close placement of parts to the IC. The  
MAX2055 package exposed paddle (EP) conducts heat  
out of the part and provides a low-impedance electrical  
connection. The EP must be attached to the PC board  
ground plane with a low thermal and electrical-imped-  
ance contact. Ideally, this is provided by soldering the  
backside package contact directly to a top metal ground  
plane on the PC board. Alternatively, the EP can be con-  
nected to a ground plane using an array of plated vias  
directly below the EP. The MAX2055 EV kit uses eight  
evenly spaced, 0.016in-diameter, plated through holes to  
connect the EP to the lower ground planes.  
Depending on the RF ground plane spacing, large sur-  
face-mount pads in the RF path may need to have the  
ground plane relieved under them to reduce shunt  
capacitance.
