ADL5331
INTERFACING TO AN IQ MODULATOR
The basic connections for interfacing the ADL5331 with the
ADL5385
quadrature modulator with an output frequency range of
50 MHz to 2.2 GHz. It offers excellent phase accuracy and
amplitude balance, enabling high performance direct RF
modulation for communication systems.
The output of the ADL5385 is designed to drive 50 Ω loads and
easily interfaces with the ADL5331. The input to the ADL5331
can be driven single-ended, as shown in Figure 17. Similar
configurations are possible with the ADL537x family of
are shown in Figure 24. The ADL5385 is an RF

quadrature modulators. These modulators can provide outputs
from 500 MHz to 4 GHz.
SOLDERING INFORMATION
On the underside of the chip scale package, there is an exposed
compressed paddle. This paddle is internally connected to the
chip’s ground. Solder the paddle to the low impedance ground
plane on the printed circuit board to ensure specified electrical
performance and to provide thermal relief. It is also recom-
mended that the ground planes on all layers under the paddle
be stitched together with vias to reduce thermal impedance.
