Product Details

This board is designed to allow the user to evaluate the performance of the ADF4351 frequency synthesizer for phase-locked loops (PLLs). It contains the ADF4351 integrated synthesizer and VCO, SMA connectors for the output signal, power supplies, a reference oscillator, and an USB connector. There is also a loop filter (35 kHz) on board. The evaluation board is set up for a 25 MHz PFD comparison frequency. An on-board TCXO provides the 25 MHz reference frequency.

The package also contains Windows^® software (XP or later) to allow easy programming of the synthesizer.
