Evaluation Board Setup
Figure 1-1. Setup Diagram
1. Power:
(a) Set power supply to 3.3 V with 500-mA current limit.
(b) Connect VCC with SMA cable or clip to test point VCC_TP.
2. Input Signal
(a) Option 1 (default): The on-board Oscillator is powered on and outputs 100-MHz signal to OSCinP
(pin 8) of the device input.
(b) Option 2: MUST switch R14p to R14, which routes the input signal from the OSCinP SMA
connector instead of on-board Oscillator. Set a low phase noise signal generator to 100 MHz with
6-dBm power level. Connect to OSCinP or OSCinM if you have a single-ended signal. Connect to
both if you have a differential signal.
NOTE: Phase noise of input signal should be below –150 dBc/Hz at 10-kHz offset for 100-MHz
signal, otherwise the input reference noise will dominate the in-band phase noise at RF
output. The On-board Oscillator is only at –134 dBc/Hz.

(a) Connect RFoutAM or RFoutAP to a phase noise analyzer. Connect a 50-Ωtermination on the
unused output if you are using only single-end. Use a balan if you are using differential-ended.
4. Programming Interface
(a) Connect your laptop to the EVM as shown with included USB2ANY module.
