High-Performance USB-Controlled PLL Synthesizers from Fairview Microwave

Fairview Microwave’s PLL frequency synthesizer models are compact, rugged, SMA-connectorized designs that support a USB 2.0 interface with a PC supplying DC power and GUI command control. They cover a broad range of frequency bands from 25 MHz to 27 GHz.

These USB-Controlled PLL Synthesizers deliver output attenuation that is adjustable up to 50 dB in 1 dB steps and high output power levels ranging from +10 dBm to +19 dBm typical. Phase noise is as low as -108 dBc/Hz at 100 MHz offset and phase locked speed is 1 msec typical.

Additionally, these PLL synthesizer models feature a 50 MHz internal frequency source and optional external reference with supplied cable.  Frequency resolution can be adjusted using either Integer (default) or fractional modes with resolution to a step size down to 1 MHz.

Our PLL frequency synthesizer modules support RF power disable, phase locking and unlocking, and functional LED indicators that confirm a USB connection.  These PLL frequency synthesizers are RoHS and Reach compliant and are classified as EAR99.
