EVM Test Procedure

3.1

Single-Tone Output Power Test

1. Connect power supplies:

Set V

CC

supply to 3.3 V and set the current limit to 500 mA.

Connect the V

CC

supply to header TP2. Connect the ground to TP1.

2. Use a suitable 50-

output signal generator to supply the LO signal with 0 dBm with the cable loss

compensated and the desired frequency f

LO

= 1 GHz to J1; terminate J2 with 50

to ground.

3. Use a digital-to-analog converter or an arbitrary waveform generator to provide I/Q input signals. A

typical setup is as follows: a 1-Vpp sinusoidal wave in differential mode for both I and Q signals with a
frequency of f

1

, a dc offset of 0.25 V, and an output impedance of 50

. Use an Agilent E4438C vector

signal generator to provide I/Q signals in the following example.

Press Preset.

Press Mode

MHz.

Press Done.

Highlight each row of the first 11 rows, and press Toggle State to turn the selected tone off; keep
only the last row with the BB frequency of 5.5 MHz. Now, 5.5-MHz, single-tone, BB I/Q signals are
configured for E4438C.

Press Multitone Off/On until On is highlighted to generate the multitone waveform.

Connect I signals to J4 (I+) and J3 (I

), and the Q signals to J5 (Q

) and J6 (Q+).

Adjust the differential I or Q voltage level to be 1 Vpp by pressing Mode

enter 9

Press dB. The voltage can be measured by an

oscilloscope. Note that the differential voltage is twice the single-ended voltage.

Set the common-mode voltage (CMV) of E4438A to 0.25 V by pressing Mode

mV. Use a dc voltage meter to monitor the dc

common voltage at the inputs of I and Q, and fine-tune the CMV setting until it is measured to be
250 mV.

4. Verify that jumper connection of pin 2 and pin 3 on JP2 to set device in low gain mode

5. Verify that jumper connection of pin 2 and pin 3 at JP1 to ensure that power down is not engaged.

6. Monitor Vcc at TP1 to ensure that Vcc is 3.3 V. Verify that the current draw is about 305 mA

±

15 mA.

7. Connect a spectrum analyzer to the SMA connector marked RFOUT (J7), and measure the TRF3705

output power at f

LO

+ f

1

= 1005.5 MHz. The RF power must be 3.5 dBm

±

1 dBm after the RF cable

loss is compensated.
