Z-Communications has introduced a new RoHS compliant Fixed Frequency Synthesizer model SFS1575D-LF in the L-band. It is a single frequency synthesizer that operates at 1575.42 MHz with a 10 MHz reference and features a typical phase noise of -102 dBc/Hz at the 10 kHz and offsets.
The SFS1575D-LF is designed to deliver a typical output power of 5 dBm with a VCO voltage supply of 5 Vdc while drawing 20 mA (typical) and a phase locked loop voltage of 3 Vdc while drawing 14 mA (typical). This Fixed Frequency Synthesizer features a typical 2nd harmonic suppression of -18 dBc and spurious suppression of -70 dBc. It is housed in Z-Comm's standard PLL-V12N package measuring 0.6 in. x 0.6 in. x 0.13 in. The SFS1575D-LF is also ideal for automated surface mount assembly and is available in tape and reel packaging.
The frequency synthesizer is ideal for GPS clock systems that require extremely low phase noise performance while operating over the industrial temperature range of -40 to 85°C.
