ADF4360-8 single ended output

Question

Hi 
 If I do not need the differential outputs on the ADF4360-8, do I only use 50 ohm resistor to terminate the unused output? or i still need to add output matching circuit on unused output.(as Figure 28. Optimum ADF4360-8 Output Stage on datasheet).Thanks!!

Hi, 
 
 If using in single ended mode it is sufficient to terminate the used output with 50Ohms. 
 Or another option is to combine the outputs with a balun which can give increase output power.
