    AD9371 EVB PCB design [via each have a black square (copper removed) next to it]

    AD9371 EVB PCB design [vias each have a black square(copper removed) next to it] There are many GND Vias between RF traces, but In the middle of the GND plane, some vias each have a black square(copper removed) next to it. What's the reason behind this design? We are considering follow the...

    effect of LO Phase noise on Transmitter (2G/3G)

    LO phase noise influence noise floor of a transmitter because of Reciprocal Mixing. Spurious emission@antenna port = Pout(dBm) + LO_phase_noise(dBc/Hz) See my blog for details about Reciprocal Mixing. **broken link removed** EVM influenced by LO phase noise. Influenced EVM =...

    trisection filter hairpin design

    Parallel-coupled lines is popular topology for printed boards, for which open-circuit lines are the simplest to implement since the manufacturing consists of nothing more than the printed track. The design consists of a row of parallel λ/2 resonators, but coupling over only λ/4 to each of the...

    What is the virtual instrument in the RF&microwave measurement?

    Virtual instrumentation is the use of customizable software and modular measurement hardware to create user-defined measurement systems, called virtual instruments. Traditional hardware instrumentation systems are made up of pre-defined hardware components, such as digital multimeters and...

    main line loss equation

    Main Line Loss: The input power divided by the power at the direct port. (10*lg(pin/P_direct)) Coupling: At a given frequency (wn), coupling is the input power divided by the power at the coupled port. Mean coupling is the average value of the coupling values in the band. N is the number of...

    What are IP3, IIP3 and P1dB ?

    Re: IP3 IIP3 P1dB lna rf IP3: Third-order intercept point The intercept point is a purely mathematical concept, and does not correspond to a practically occurring physical power level. In many cases, it lies beyond the damage threshold of the device. The intercept point is obtained...

    why do we need power amplifier driver (PAD) in modern transmitter?

    In order to get enough gain. The final amplifier stage (output stage) is not enough to amplify the signal to target power.

    How to calculate the third order distortion of the cascaded components? Any equations

    The Cascade calculation formula of Gain/NF/OP1dB/OIP3 are: **broken link removed** You can use **broken link removed** or **broken link removed** to calculate cascade specifacations.

    RF question that I have not found anywhere

    It's because the Receiver sensitivity improved. What is receiver sensitivity? The Minimum Detectable Signal(MDS) power, Pi(min) at which a receiver can detect a signal, while providing an adequate SNRo(min) at analog receiver output or BER at digital receiver output, for demodulation is called...

    What is the relation of P1dB and IP3?

    In theory , IP1dB = IIP3 – 9.6 dB

    Intermodulation with unequal input power

    Answer is a slight mistake above. pi1 and pi2 represent the input power for the tones at f1 and f2, po1 and po2 represent the output power for the tones at f1 and f2, and po12 and po21 represent the output power for the tones at |2f1 – f2| and |2f2 – f1|. Formulas for computing IP3: OIP3 =...
