AC Test Circuit

Figure 2 shows a typical test circuit for evaluation of the LM2445. This circuit is designed to allow testing of the LM2445 in a 50

Ω

environment without the use of an expensive FET probe. The two 2490

Ω resistors form a 200:1 divider with the 50Ω resistor and

the oscilloscope. A test point is included for easy use of an oscilloscope probe. The compensation capacitor is used to

compensate the stray capacitance of the two 2490

Ω resistors to achieve flat frequency response.
