Fairview Microwave has introduced a new line of frequency divider modules that cover broadband frequencies from 0.1 to 20GHz. A comprehensive offering of 28 different models features fixed divide-by-ratios from two to 40. These compact prescalers are well suited for use in frequency synthesiser and phase locked loop (PLL) circuit designs, as well as test instrumentation systems.

These rugged frequency dividers are typically used in applications such as satellite communications, VSAT, aerospace and defence, test and measurement, and point-to-point radio networks.

This line of dividers is available in compact and rugged SMA connectorised packages with input power ranging from -20 to +15 dBm, and output power ranging from -6 to +5 dBm depending on the model. The circuit assemblies feature advanced GaAs HBT MMIC semiconductor technology that produces low additive SSB phase noise performance with typical levels down to -155 dBc/Hz at 100KHz offset.

Fairview’s new RF frequency divider modules are designed for high reliability and most models meet MIL-STD-202 environmental test conditions for shock, humidity, vibration and altitude. Some models are hermetically sealed and are guaranteed to meet MIL-STD-883 environmental test conditions for temperature cycle and fine & gross leak.

“This comprehensive new line of frequency divider modules was designed to optimise performance for phase locked loops and other applications by offering wide frequency bands from 0.1 to 20 GHz and a wide variety of fixed divide-by-ratio configurations,” said Tim Galla, Product Manager.

Fairview Microwave’s SMA frequency dividers are ready for immediate shipment, with no minimum order quantity required.
