V585ME40-LF

Overview

The V585ME40-LF is a surface-mount voltage-controlled oscillator manufactured by Z-Communications, Inc. It operates within a frequency range of 800 MHz to 1650 MHz, with a center frequency of 1225 MHz. The device requires a nominal supply voltage of 5 V and delivers an output power of approximately 3.5 dBm. Tuning sensitivity is specified at 50 MHz/V, controlled via a tuning voltage input. This component is designed for high-performance applications requiring stable frequency generation in wireless systems.

Feature Summary

• Surface mount module design for compact integration
• Wide frequency tuning range from 800 MHz to 1650 MHz
• High tuning sensitivity of 50 MHz/V for precise control

Applications

• Wireless communication systems
• Frequency synthesis circuits
• Phase-locked loop (PLL) modules

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific datasheet version for the V585ME40-LF to confirm exact electrical tolerances and pinout configurations before integration. Ensure that the supply voltage remains within the specified 5 V nominal limit to maintain optimal performance and prevent damage. Cross-reference the manufacturer's official documentation for any updates regarding RoHS compliance or lead-free status associated with the LF suffix.

Selection Notes

Select the V585ME40-LF when a wide tuning range centered around 1225 MHz is required for surface-mount designs. Consider its 50 MHz/V sensitivity for applications needing rapid frequency adjustments. Evaluate the 3.5 dBm output power against system loss budgets. Compare against other V-series models if different frequency bands or power levels are necessary for the specific wireless application.

Part Context

This component belongs to the V585 series of voltage-controlled oscillators produced by Z-Communications, Inc., a leader in VCO and PLL technology. The series includes various models such as the V585ME08-LF and V585ME44-LF, each tailored for specific frequency ranges. The V585ME40-LF specifically targets the 800-1650 MHz band, offering a balance of wide tuning capability and moderate output power for commercial wireless markets.

Replacement Considerations

The V585ME08-LF and V585ME44-LF are part of the same family but operate at different frequencies. Direct substitution requires verifying that the target frequency range matches the application requirements. No direct cross-manufacturer substitutes are documented in the provided data.
