The ADF4107BCPZ-REEL is an Integrated Circuit (IC) component manufactured by Analog Devices. It belongs to the family of RF frequency synthesizers and offers a range of features suitable for various applications. This IC operates within a frequency range of 65 MHz to 18 GHz and utilizes a fractional-N synthesizer architecture.
One key feature of the ADF4107BCPZ-REEL is its phase-locked loop (PLL) design, which allows for precise frequency synthesis and modulation. The PLL can be configured to generate either a low-noise continuous wave (CW) signal or a modulated signal with frequency hopping capability.
This IC also incorporates a programmable modulus counter that enables fine frequency resolution, facilitating highly accurate frequency synthesis. It offers a 24-bit sigma-delta modulator that aids in achieving ultra-low spurious and phase noise performance.
Another important feature of the ADF4107BCPZ-REEL is its integrated voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO), which provides a wide tuning range. The VCO can be externally controlled and operates with a low phase noise performance level.
The IC supports a serial interface, enabling easy communication with external microcontrollers or digital signal processors (DSPs). It also includes a lock-detect feature, allowing for monitoring and verification of PLL lock status
