Model # LCFS1060 5.2 - 5.8 GHz Frequency Synthesizer Low Phase Noise in a Lower Cost Package Features • Low Phase Noise: -100 dBc/Hz (100 kHz Offset) • Internal Reference Oscillator • No User Programming Required • Integrated Microcontroller Look-up Table • Customized Parallel or Serial Programming Available • Optional 2nd Output Line is Available API Technologies’ Model LCFS1060 frequency synthesizer combines a monolithic fractional-N microwave synthesizer, a reference oscillator and a microcontroller to provide an economical frequency source solution. Complex serial register programming is not required. A built-in lookup table in the microcontroller allows for simplified frequency programming with a dual 7-bit binary frequency selection word. Either parallel or serial programming can be accommodated.
