GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The
ADL6316
transmit variable gain amplifier (TxVGA) provides
an interface for radio frequency (RF) digital-to-analog converters
(DACs), transceivers, and systems on a chip (SoC) to power
amplifiers (PAs). Integrated balun and hybrid couplers allow
high performance RF capability over a frequency range of
0.5 GHz to 1.0 GHz.
To optimize performance vs. power level, the
a voltage variable attenuator (VVA), high linearity amplifiers, and
a digital step attenuator (DSA). The devices integrated into the
ADL6316
are programmable via a 4-wire serial port interface (SPI).
This user guide describes the evaluation board and software for
the ADL6316. For full details, see the
which must be consulted when using the evaluation board. The
ADL6316-EVALZ evaluation board is fabricated with FR-370HR,
Rogers 4350B in four layers.
