Figure 5. Output Power Measurement
Application Circuit For the supply-voltage blocking capacitor C
3
, a value of 68 nF/X7R is recommended
(see Figure 6 and Figure 7). C
1
and C
2
are used to match the loop antenna to the power
amplifier where C
1
typically is 3.9 pF/NP0 and C
2
is 1 pF/NP0; for C
2
two capacitors in
series should be used to achieve a better tolerance value and to have the possibility to
realize the Z
Load,opt
by using standard valued capacitors.
C
1
forms together with the pins of PLL transmitter block and the PCB board wires a
series resonance loop that suppresses the 1
st
harmonic, thus, the position of C
1
on the
PCB is important. Normally the best supression is achieved when C
1
is placed as close
as possible to the pins ANT1 and ANT2.
The loop antenna should not exceed a width of 1.5 mm, otherwise the Q-factor of the
loop antenna is too high.
L
1
(»50 nH to 100 nH) can be printed on PCB. C
4
should be selected so the XTO runs
on the load resonance frequency of the crystal. Normally, a value of 12 pF results for a
15 pF load-capacitance crystal.
