GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The
EV-ADF4356SD1Z
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

EV-ADF4356SD1Z.
When working with the evaluation board and for full
specifications of the device, consult the
synthesizer data sheet. For easy programming of the
synthesizer, download the Windows®-based software from the
ADF4356
product page.
