Tools & Simulations

ADIsimPLL™

ADIsimPLL enables the rapid and reliable evaluation of new high performance PLL products from ADI. It is the most comprehensive PLL Synthesizer design and simulation tool available today. Simulations performed include all key non-linear effects that are significant in affecting PLL performance. ADIsimPLL removes at least one iteration from the design process, thereby speeding the design- to-market.

Features and Benefits

  • Self contained board, including ADF4356 frequency synthesizer with integrated VCO, differential, 122.88 MHz, temperature controlled crystal oscillator (TCXO), loop filter (80 kHz), USB interface, and voltage regulators
  • Windows-based software allows control of synthesizer functions from a PC 
  • Externally powered by 5.5 V

Product Details

The EV-ADF4356SD1Z evaluates the performance of the ADF4356 frequency synthesizer with an integrated voltage control (VCO) for phase-locked loops (PLLs). The evaluation board contains the ADF4356 frequency synthesizer with an integrated VCO, a differential 122.88 MHz reference (TCXO), a loop filter, a USB interface, power supply connectors, and subminiature Version A (SMA) connectors. A USB cable is included to connect the board to a PC USB port.


This board requires an SDP-S. The SDP-S allows software programming of the EV-ADF4356SD1Z.


When working with the evaluation board and for full specifications of the device, consult the ADF4356 frequency synthesizer data sheet. For easy programming of the synthesizer, download the Windows®-based software from the ADF4356 product page.
