Adf4360-0

Thread Summary

The user encountered a discrepancy in the output power of the ADF4360-0 at 2400 MHz, measuring -40 dBm instead of the expected -6 dBm. The issue was resolved after identifying a mistake in the power measurement due to excessive cable attenuation. The user then inquired about achieving -3 dBm output, and was advised to refer to page 21 of the ADF4360-0 datasheet for methods to increase output power using external components.

First of all thank you very much for your excellent forum, I'm doing a  Design of an Economical Antenna-Gain and Radiation-Pattern Measurement System, for that I dispose of a adf4360 and AD8302 detector, my problem is with adf4360 when checking the intensity of the signal produced at 2400MHz when I select 11mA that equals -6dBm this is not the intensity and measure the value is -40dbm,  not generate the correct signal.

I would appreciate your help.
