Evaluation Board for ADF4360-9 Integrated PLL and VCO Frequency Synthesizer
FEATURES
Self-contained board for generating RF frequencies
Flexibility for reference input, PFD frequency, and loop
bandwidth
Accompanying software allows complete control of
synthesizer functions from a PC
Flexibility for changing external inductor to allow different
VCO output frequency ranges
USB-/battery-operated 9 V supplies
Typical DIVOUT jitter performance of 1.4 ps
PLEASE SEE THE LAST PAGE FOR AN IMPORTANT
WARNING AND LEGAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS.
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The
user to evaluate the performance of the
synthesizer consisting of an integrated PLL and VCO (see
Figure 1). It contains the ADF4360-9BCPZ, a USB connector,
and SMA connectors for the RF outputs. Unpopulated SMA
footprints are available for the power supplies, lock detect, and
the external reference input. The evaluation board also contains
the loop filter to complete the PLL. It can be modified as necessary
for the user's PLL requirements. A USB cable is included with
the board to allow software programmability.
The package also contains a CD with Windows® software to allow
quick, user-friendly programming of the synthesizer. The CD
contains numerous other PLL data sheets, technical notes, articles,
and ADIsimPLL™ V3.4, Analog Devices, Inc., PLL simulation
software. More information is available at www.analog.com/pll.

The install wizard guides you through the installation process. The software is installed in a default directory called C:/Program Files/Analog Devices/ADF4360. The software requires Microsoft’s .NET Framework Version 2.0 or later to be installed on your machine. The installer automati- cally downloads the framework from the Microsoft website if you do not have this installed. -
