4 Conclusion

Following guidelines of PSMR plot and power supply load transient settling time, first symbol degradation and additional phase noise, Jitter can be minimized to desired specification.

We can summarize with captured waveform and test data that by paring low noise DC-DC TPS62913 and TPS543820 TI power products with TI AFE80xx AFE family, desired RF performance can be achieved.

Pairing AFE80xx with low noise DC-DC operating in fixed frequency mode with ACM (Advance Current Mode) control to achieve fast load transient response and secondary passive L-C closed loop filtering enables a drastic reduction of phase noise jitter and inter modulation spurious in RF spectrum.
