Key Differentiators

  • Wide frequency range from 30 MHz to 6 GHz (vs ADRV9003BBCZ-REEL)
  • Dual-channel transceiver (vs ADRV9002BBCZ-REEL)
  • Tape-and-reel packaging (vs ADRV9004BBCZ)

Design Notes

The ADRV9004BBCZ-REEL requires multiple power supply rails. Use low-noise LDOs for analog and digital supplies to minimize noise coupling into the RF path. Decouple each supply pin with 100 nF and 10 uF capacitors placed as close as possible to the pins. Refer to the datasheet for recommended supply sequencing to avoid latch-up.

For optimal RF performance, use a 4-layer or more PCB with a solid ground plane. Place the device on a 50-ohm controlled impedance transmission line for RF traces. Keep high-speed digital traces away from RF traces to minimize crosstalk. Use via stitching around the RF sections to ensure good grounding.

The 196-ball CSP_BGA package has a thermal pad that must be soldered to a thermal via array connected to a ground plane for heat dissipation. Ensure adequate copper area on the PCB to keep the junction temperature within limits. For high-power operation, consider adding a heatsink or forced air cooling.
