3 / 11 page Detailed Description The following sections describe the tuning methodology best implemented with a class A amplifier. Other classes of operation may require significantly different settings. Supply Decoupling Capacitors Capacitors C4 and C5 are 0.01µF (±10%) and are used for minimizing low-frequency noise on the supply. External Matching Components The MAX2009 external matching networks at the input and output of the phase and gain sections consist of C1, C11, C10, C12, C9, C8, C6, C7, along with some high-impedance transmission lines. The MAX2010 matching consists of C1, C11, L1, L2, C10, C12, C9, C8, C6, and C7. Phase-Tuning Section Varactors VR1 and VR2 provide fine tuning of the phase-expansion slope. Resistors R1 and R2 provide a high-impedance method to inject control voltage on the varactors. Capacitors C2 and C3 are coupling capaci- tors that also offset the series parasitic inductance of the chip and PC board. If phase-slope fine tuning is not required in the user’s application, then only C2 and C3 to ground are necessary. Gain and Phase Controls The MAX2009/MAX2010 controls can provide real-time software-controlled distortion corrections as well as set- and-forget tuning by setting the expansion starting point (breakpoint) and the rate of expansion (slope). The gain and phase breakpoints are adjustable over a 20dB input power range. The phase expansion slope is variable from 0.3°/dB to 2.0°/dB and can be adjusted for a maximum of 24° of phase expansion. The gain expansion slope is variable from 0.1dB/dB to 0.6dB/dB and can be adjusted for a maximum of 7dB gain expansion. Phase-Expansion Breakpoint The PB_IN input voltage range of 0V to VCC corre- sponds to a breakpoint input power range of 3.7dBm to 23dBm. In order to achieve optimal performance, the phase-expansion breakpoint of the MAX2009/ MAX2010 must be set to equal the phase compression point of the PA. Control pin PBRAW should be shorted to the PBEXP output pin for most applications. Driving PBRAW direct- ly allows for additional control such as obtaining phase compression for some and/or all the input power sweep. Resistor R3 allows the option of driving PBRAW with a low-impedance voltage, which overrides the PBEXP output voltage. Phase-Expansion Slope The phase-expansion slope of the MAX2009/MAX2010 is controlled by the PF_S1, PF_S2, PD_CS1, and PD_CS2 pins. Most applications require PF_S1 and PF_S2 to be driven identically, and therefore they are shorted on layer 4 of the PC board. The phase-expansion slope of the MAX2009/MAX2010 must also be adjusted to equal the opposite slope of the PA’s phase-compression curve. Gain-Expansion Breakpoint The G_BP input voltage range of 0.5V to 5.0V corresponds to a breakpoint input power range of -3dBm to 23dBm. In order to achieve the optimal performance, the gain-expansion breakpoint of the MAX2009/ MAX2010 must be set to equal the gain- compression point of the PA. The G_BP control has a minimal effect on the small-signal gain when operated from 0.5V to 5.0V. Gain-Expansion Slope Both G_CS and G_FS pins have an input voltage range of 0V to VCC, corresponding to a slope of approximately 0.1dB/dB to 0.6dB/dB. The slope is set to maximum when VGCS = 0V and VGFS = +5V, and the slope is at its minimum when VGCS = +5V and VGFS = 0V. In addi- tion to properly setting the breakpoint, the gain-expan- sion slope of the MAX2009/MAX2010 must also be adjusted in order to compensate for the PA’s gain com- pression. The slope should be set using the following equation: MAX20XX_SLOPE = where: MAX20XX_SLOPE = MAX2009/MAX2010 gain section’s slope in dB/dB. PA_SLOPE = PA’s gain slope in dB/dB, a negative number for compressive behavior. Unlike with the G_BP pin, modifying the gain-expansion slope bias on the G_CS pin causes a change in the part’s insertion loss and noise figure. For example, a smaller slope caused by G_CS results in a better inser- tion loss and lower noise figure. − + PA SLOPE PA SLOPE _ _ 1 MAX2009/MAX2010 Evaluation Kits _______________________________________________________________________________________ 3 PIN (J5) VOLTAGE (V) G_BP 1.2 G_FS 5 G_CS 1.0 Table 2.
