A buffer amplifier is recommended because the current into the VAPC

changes with voltage. As an alternative, the voltage may be

monitored with an oscilloscope.

Notes about testing the RF5110

The test setup shown above includes two attenuators. The 3dB pad at the input is to minimize the effect on the signal genera-

tor as a result of switching the input impedance of the PA. When VAPC is switched quickly, the resulting input impedance

change can cause the signal generator to vary its output signal, either in output level or in frequency. Instead of an attenuator

an isolator may also be used. The attenuator at the output is to prevent damage to the spectrum analyzer, and should be sized

accordingly to handle the power.

It is important not to exceed the rated supply current and output power. When testing the device at higher than nominal supply

voltage, the VAPC should be adjusted to avoid the output power exceeding +36dBm. During load-pull testing at the output it is

important to monitor the forward power through a directional coupler. The forward power should not exceed +36dBm, and

VAPC needs to be adjusted accordingly. This simulates the behavior for the power control loop. To avoid damage, it is recom-

mended to set the power supply to limit the current during the burst not to exceed the maximum current rating.
