The ADF4360-7BCPZRL7 is a high-performance integer-N frequency synthesizer. It is integrated with an on-chip voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO), ensuring precise frequency synthesis capabilities for various wireless communication applications.
One of the key features of the ADF4360-7BCPZRL7 is its wide frequency range, spanning from 62.5 MHz to 7.5 GHz, making it suitable for several frequency bands. It operates on a supply voltage of 2.7V to 3.3V, allowing for compatibility with multiple systems.
The frequency synthesizer has an integrated phase detector, enabling it to lock onto an external reference signal accurately. This facilitates its usage in applications such as wireless base stations, instrumentation, and frequency-hopping systems. Additionally, it offers a low phase noise characteristic, guaranteeing optimal signal quality.
The device provides excellent frequency resolution due to the fractional mode divide ratio, allowing for precise frequency synthesis. This, coupled with its fast-settling phase-locked loop architecture, ensures minimal settling time when switching frequencies.
Another noteworthy feature is the on-chip VCO with an automatic amplitude control circuit. This circuit maintains consistent output power across different frequencies, enhancing the device's overall performance and usability.
The ADF4360-7BCPZRL7 offers a flexible configuration interface via a simple 3-wire serial control interface, simplifying system integration
