HMC900LP5E Evaluation Kit User Manual
4.1.2 Single-Ended Inputs/Outputs Configuration
Hardware board changes are required to configure the HMC900LP5E Evaluation Board
for single-ended operation
4.1.2.1 Single-Ended Input Configuration
To configure the HMC900LP5E Evaluation Board for single-ended input operation, 0 Ω
resistors R41, R42, R45, R46 need to be removed, and the following components need to
be populated:
• 0 Ω resistors, R40, R43, R44, R47, R57, R58
• 10 µF capacitors, C45, C46
• and two ADT2-1T Baluns (T3 & T4)
Note that the components required for single-ended configuration are not included in the
HMC900LP5E Evaluation Kit:
Single-ended input configuration of the HMC900LP5E is shown in Figure 4.
