They are housed in hermetic high reliability surface mount packages suitable for commercial, industrial, and military applications. Typical applications include stabilized or digitally controlled local oscillators for GPS, SATCOM or military receivers, and frequency synthesizers and counters in instrumentation systems. The IFD-53110 is a lower cost selected version of the IFD-53010, and is distinguished by a reduced operating frequency range. The IFD series of frequency dividers is fabricated using Hewlett-Packard's 18 GHz, ft, ISOSAT™-2 silicon bipolar process which uses nitride selfalignment, submicrometer lithography, trench isolation, ionimplantation, gold metallization and polyimide intermetal dielectric and scratch protection to achieve excellent device uniformity, performance, and reliability.
