ADL5372
EVALUATION BOARD
Populated RoHS compliant evaluation boards are available for
evaluation of the ADL5372. The ADL5372 package has an exposed
paddle on the underside. This exposed paddle must be soldered
to the board (see the Power Supply and Grounding section).
The evaluation board is designed without any components on
the underside so heat can be applied to the underside for easy
removal and replacement of the ADL5372.
