EVALUATION BOARD

The AD8343 Evaluation Board has two independent areas, denoted A and B. The circuit schematics are shown in Figures 23 and

24. An assembly drawing is included in Figure 25 to ease identification of components, and representations of the board layout are

included in Figures 26 through 29.

The A region is configured for ease in making device impedance measurements as part of the process of developing suitable

matching networks for a final application. The B region is designed for operating the AD8343 in a single-ended application environment

and therefore includes pads for attaching baluns or transformers at both the input and output.

The following Tables (III through V) delineate the components used for the characterization procedure used to generate TPC 1

through 42 and most other data contained in this data sheet. Table III lists the support components that are delivered with the

AD8343 evaluation board. Note that the board is shipped without any frequency specific components installed. Table IV lists

the components used to obtain the frequency selection necessary for the product receiver evaluation, and Table V lists the transmitter

evaluation components.
