ADF4156BCPZ 6.2GHz Fractional-N Frequency Synthesizer LFCSP-20 Integrated Circuit Chip

ADF4156BCPZ is a 6.2 GHz fractional-N frequency synthesizer that implements local oscillators in the up-conversion and down-conversion sections of wireless receivers and transmitters. It consists of a low noise digital phase frequency detector (PFD), a precision charge pump, and a programmable reference divider.

ADF4156BCPZ is a ∑­∆ based fractional interpolator to allow programmable fractional-N division. The INT, FRAC, and MOD registers define an overall N divider (N = (INT + (FRAC/MOD))). The RF output phase is programmable for applications that require a particular phase relationship between the output and the reference. The ADF4156BCPZ also features cycle slip reduction circuitry, leading to faster lock times without the need for modifications to the loop filter.
