RFFC5071A/2A WIDEBAND SYNTHESIZER/VCO WITH INTEGRATED 6 GHz MIXER Product Overview The RFFC5071A and RFFC5072A are re-configurable frequency conversion devices with integrated fractional-N phased locked loop (PLL) synthesizer, voltage controlled oscillator (VCO) and either one or two high linearity mixers. Package: QFN, 32-Pin, 5mm x 5mm The fractional-N synthesizer takes advantage of an advanced sigma-delta modulator that delivers ultra-fine step sizes and low spurious products. The VCO features Key Features temperature compensation circuits that deliver stable 85 MHz to 4200 MHz LO Frequency Range performance across the operating temperature range of - Fractional-N Synthesizer with Very Low 40 C to +85 C. The PLL/VCO engine combined with an Spurious Levels external loop filter allows the user to generate local oscillator (LO) signals from 85 MHz to 4200 MHz. The LO Typical Step Size 1.5 Hz signal is buffered and routed to the integrated RF mixers Fully Integrated Low Phase Noise VCO and LO Buffers which are used to up/down-convert frequencies ranging Integrated Phase Noise from 30 MHz to 6000 MHz. The mixer bias current is 0.18 rms at 1 GHz programmable and can be reduced for applications 0.52 rms at 3 GHz requiring lower power consumption. Both devices can be configured to work as signal sources by bypassing the High Linearity RF Mixer(s) integrated mixers. Device programming is achieved via a 30 MHz to 6000 MHz Mixer Frequency Range simple 3-wire serial interface. In addition, a unique Input IP3 +23 dBm programming mode allows up to four devices to be Mixer Bias Adjustable for Low Power Operation controlled from a common serial bus. This eliminates the Full Duplex Mode (RFFC5071A) need for separate chip-select control lines between each 2.7 V to 3.3 V Power Supply device and the host controller. Up to six general purpose outputs are provided, which can be used to access internal Low Current Consumption signals (the LOCK signal, for example) or to control front 3- or 4-Wire Serial Interface end components. Both devices operate with a 2.7 V to 3.3 V power supply.
