FMFD5001

Overview

The FMFD5001 is an SMA frequency divider module manufactured by Fairview Microwave. It functions as a divide-by-5 prescaler designed for RF signal processing applications. The component operates within two distinct frequency bands: 20 MHz to 3 GHz and 100 MHz to 15 GHz. It utilizes SMA connectors for interface connectivity and is packaged in a bag for standard handling.

Feature Summary

• Provides divide-by-5 frequency division functionality
• Supports dual operational frequency ranges up to 15 GHz
• Utilizes SMA connector interface for integration

Applications

• RF signal conditioning systems
• Frequency synthesis circuits
• General purpose RF testing equipment

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific datasheet version to confirm exact electrical characteristics and pinout configurations prior to integration. Ensure compatibility with system impedance requirements. Confirm RoHS compliance status if environmental regulations apply to the final assembly. Cross-reference manufacturer documentation for any updates to operating temperature ranges or mechanical dimensions.

Selection Notes

Select this module when a fixed divide-by-5 ratio is required for frequencies extending up to 15 GHz. Consider the SMA interface constraints for board layout. Evaluate whether the dual-band specification meets the lowest and highest frequency needs of the design. Compare against other prescalers if variable division ratios are necessary instead of fixed division.
