5 Measurement Procedure
The performance of the LMH2180 can be measured with the setup given in Figure 3.
Figure 3. Measurement Setup
A supply voltage between 2.5 V to 5.0 V can be set by an external power supply connected to the JP2
(Red) V
DD
pin and JP1 (Black) GND pin. In order to test its functionality, the buffer is tested by looking at
the frequency response. Make sure to enable the buffer that has to be evaluated. The frequency response
is tested by using a network analyzer (4395A). For small signal bandwidth evaluation, the source input
should be set at 16 dBm. Be aware to measure the output of the buffer with the probe directly connected
to TP2 or TP4 to measure the highest available bandwidth.
