The signal input and outputs on the EVM all provide SMA connectors along with resistors to properly impedance match the connections. The INA+, INB+, INA-, and INB- include footprints for simple resistors to ground that can be used to impedance match the inputs or short the input connection to ground. The outputs feature a series-shunt resistor network configuration to allow for an impedance matched network that presents a higher load value to the amplifier. The suggested default values for the output resistors provides an approximate 200-Ω load to the amplifier while matching a 50-Ω terminated output connection. The COMA and COMB inputs a series resistor input and an shunt input that can be used for a termination resistor or to add capacitance to the input.
