The ADF4350BCPZ-RL7 is a highly integrated, wideband frequency synthesizer integrated circuit (IC) component produced by Analog Devices. It offers a versatile solution for generating frequency signals in a wide range of applications, including wireless communication systems, instrumentation, and radar systems. Below are some key features and an overview of this component:
1. Frequency Range: The ADF4350BCPZ-RL7 supports a frequency range from 35 MHz to 4400 MHz, making it suitable for a wide variety of frequency synthesis requirements.
2. Fractional-N PLL: It incorporates a fractional-N phase-locked loop (PLL), allowing precise frequency synthesis. The fractional-N architecture enables fine frequency resolution while maintaining low phase noise and spurious performance.
3. Integrated VCO: The IC integrates a voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO) that operates in the frequency range mentioned above. This eliminates the need for an external VCO, reducing component count and simplifying system design.
4. High Resolution: The ADF4350BCPZ-RL7 provides excellent frequency resolution, with a programmable output resolution of 37 bits. This high resolution allows for precise frequency tuning and modulation.
5. Fast Frequency Hopping: With a fast frequency hopping capability, this component is suitable for applications requiring quick frequency changes. It can settle on a new frequency within a few microseconds, enabling faster system response time
