U1 HMC921LP4E Linear Amplifier PCB [2] 130090 Evaluation PCB [1] Amplifiers - Linear & Power - SMT 1900 MHz Evaluation PCB The circuit board used in this application should use RF circuit design techniques. Signal lines should have 50 Ohm impedance while the package ground leads and exposed paddle should be connected directly to the ground plane similar to that shown. A sufficient number of via holes should be used to connect the top and bottom ground planes. The evaluation board should be mounted to an appropriate heat sink. The evaluation circuit board shown is available from Hittite upon request.
