L Band Receiver Circuit Design and PCB Layout Review This
consulting activity consisted of reviewing detailed design schematics for a
wideband L band receiver already designed by the client, and ensuring
frequency plans, gain distribution, phase noise and thermal noise figure
considerations were properly accounted for. As well, detailed circuit
implementation and passive and active component choices were reviewed.
Recommendations were made to improve components choices, power supplies
decoupling and where to add test points to aid the development and
manufacturing processes. Circuit
board layout recommendations were generated describing how to partition the
circuits, which circuits should be shielded, what kind of shields should be
used and where to place bypass and power supply decoupling components.
As well, recommendations were given for a RF friendly layer stack-up, power
supply routing methods and where to put ground planes. |
