The system in Figure 2 uses the ADF4372 PLL (see Figure 5), a wideband synthesizer with integrated VCO, that allows the implementation of fractional-N or integer-N frequency synthesizers when used ...

We usually reserve the honor of Fail of the Week for one of us – someone laboring at the bench who just couldn’t get it together, or perhaps someone who came perilously close to winning a Darwin Award ...

Covering the mobile-wireless band from 400 MHz to 2.5 GHz, the 2910 RF vector signal generator uses patent-pending synthesizer technology, Software-Defined Radio (SDR) architecture, and unique ...

Transimpedance amplifiers (TIAs) convert a current to a voltage. In many systems, this current comes from a photodiode. In order to test a TIA, it is best to drive the TIA with a current that emulates ...

The addition of a high-output RF signal generator not only simplifies your RF test setup, it also can overcome some of the issues associated with lossy cables and components. In RF testing, an ...
