ADF4360-6BCPZ

Overview

The ADF4360-6BCPZ is an integrated integer-N synthesizer and voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO) designed for a center frequency of 1150 MHz. It operates within an output frequency range of 1050 MHz to 1250 MHz, with a divide-by-2 option providing 525 MHz to 625 MHz. The device supports power supplies from 3.0 V to 3.6 V and features 1.8 V logic compatibility. Key electrical parameters include a typical phase noise of −110 dBc/Hz at 100 kHz offset and programmable output power levels ranging from −13.5 dBm to −4.5 dBm. Control is managed via a 3-wire serial interface.

Feature Summary

• Integrated integer-N synthesizer and VCO covering 1050 MHz to 1250 MHz

• Programmable output power levels in 3 dB steps from −13.5 dBm to −4.5 dBm
• Hardware and software power-down modes with low current consumption

Applications

• Wireless handsets (DECT, GSM, PCS, DCS, WCDMA)
• Test equipment
• Wireless LANs
• CATV equipment

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix BC indicates the commercial temperature grade and LFCSP package variant. Confirm RoHS compliance status through official Analog Devices documentation prior to procurement. Ensure supply chain sources provide valid traceability for this integrated circuit component.

Selection Notes

Select the ADF4360-6BCPZ when a fixed center frequency near 1150 MHz is required. Consider the divide-by-2 feature if lower frequencies around 575 MHz are needed. Evaluate the programmable charge pump current and output power settings against system noise and drive requirements. Verify that the 3-wire interface timing meets the host controller specifications.

Part Context

This component belongs to the ADF4360 family of integrated PLL and VCO synthesizers. The family utilizes a multiband architecture to cover wide frequency ranges with low sensitivity. The ADF4360-6 specifically targets the L-band spectrum, offering a compact solution for applications requiring high performance in a small footprint.
