APPLICATIONS

Figure 1. ISM/AMR applications GENERAL DESCRIPTION The ADL5321 incorporates a dynamically adjustable biasing circuit that allows for the customization of OIP3 and P1dB performance from 3.3 V to 5 V without the need for an external bias resistor. This feature gives the designer the ability to tailor driver amplifier performance to the specific needs of the design. This feature also creates the opportunity for dynamic biasing of the driver amplifier, where a variable supply is used to allow for full 5 V biasing under large signal conditions and then can reduce the supply voltage when signal levels are smaller and lower power consumption is desirable. This scalability reduces the need to evaluate and inventory multiple driver amplifiers for different output power requirements from 22 dBm to 26 dBm output power levels. The ADL5321 is also rated to operate across the wide temper- ature range of −40°C to +105°C for reliable performance in designs that experience higher temperatures, such as power amplifiers. The 1∕4 watt driver amplifier covers the 2.3 GHz to

4.0 GHz wide frequency range and only requires a few external

components to be tuned to a specific band within that wide range. This high performance, broadband RF driver amplifier is well suited for a variety of wired and wireless applications including cellular infrastructure, ISM band power amplifiers, defense equipment, and instrumentation equipment. A fully populated evaluation board is available. The ADL5321 also delivers excellent adjacent channel leakage ratio (ACLR) vs. P OUT. For output powers up to 10 dBm rms, the ADL5321 adds very little distortion to the output spectrum. At

2.6 GHz, the ACLR is −59 dB and a relative constellation error of

−46.6 dB (<0.5% EVM) at an output power of 10 dBm rms. Figure 2. WiMAX 64 QAM, 10 MHz Bandwidth, Single Carrier
