LMX2594EVM: LMX2594EVM

Part Number: LMX2594EVM


1. Measured evaluation PCB for output power per setting of figure 16 in datasheet. Measured about 1 dB lower than per datasheet from 3-13 GHz and ~5 dB lower at 14 & 15 GHz. Why power is so low? Can we do something to improve? 

Ordered 1 nH inductor to try out instead of 50 ohm resistor as pull-up. 

2. Measured ~ 400 mA current draw with only outA & PLL w/VCO. Is there any way we can reduce current draw?
