Fixed frequency synthesiser for test systems

A new RoHS compliant fixed frequency phase locked loop model SFS7500D-LF operating in the X-band has been introduced by Z-Communications. The SFS7500D-LF is a plug and play PLO allowing for quick integration and designed to produce a fixed signal at 7500 MHz when utilised with an external 10 MHz reference oscillator. 

This simple to use PLO features a typical low phase noise performance of -80dBc/Hz, -95dBc/Hz, and -124dBc/Hz at the one, ten and 100kHz offsets, respectively.

The SFS7500D-LF is designed to deliver a nominal output power of -3dBm while operating off a VCO voltage supply of 5Vdc and drawing 120mA and a phase locked loop voltage of 3Vdc while drawing 11mA. 

This unmatched product features a typical harmonic suppression of -30dBc and spurious suppression of -65dBc. It is housed in Z-COMM’s standard SFS-L1 package measuring 1x1x0.22”. The SFS7500D-LF is also ideal for automated surface mount assembly and is available in tape and reel packaging. 

The SFS7500D-LF is a good choice for quick product rollouts, and is well suited for test systems and radar applications requiring operation over the temperature range of -40 to +85°C.
