LAYOUT CONSIDERATIONS

High-Q inductive drives and loads, as well as stray transmission

line capacitance in combination with package parasitics, can

potentially form a resonant circuit at high frequencies, resulting

in excessive gain peaking or possible oscillation. If RF transmission

lines connecting the input or output are used, design them such

that stray capacitance at the input/output pins is minimized. In

many board designs, the signal trace widths should be minimal

where the driver/receiver is no more than one-eighth of the

wavelength from the amplifier. This nontransmission line

configuration requires that underlying and adjacent ground and

low impedance planes be dropped from the signal lines.
