AD8331 mixed frequency components

Category: Hardware
Product Number: AD8331

Hi, 

I'm Evaluating the AD8331 on the evaluation board AD8331-EVALZ. However I observed mixing products like below photos:

Setting: LNA and VGA actived, 5V power supply provided by LDO ADP7104, Hi-Gain Mode, Slope=UP, Rclapm=open, Vctrl=0.51 (external power supply), Pin=-14dBm 

@10MHz

@20MHz

@30MHz

Where do these sideband spurious come from ? They have the same freq. offset about 4-5MHz to the fundamental. From measured P1dBin at this setting the AD8331 is not saturated. Need urgent help, please...

Thanks in advances,

XL
