Richardson RFPD Introduces High Dynamic Range IQ Modulators and
Demodulators from ADI
|
March 7, 2012 Press Release

-- Devices Feature Integrated PLL and VCO; Operate at up to
2.4 GHz March 7, 2012 – La Fox, Illinois: Richardson
RFPD, Inc. today announces immediate availability and full design support
capabilities for a
group of high performance quadrature modulators and demodulators
for operation at frequencies up to 2.4 GHz from Analog Devices, Inc.
(ADI). The devices offer a combination of performance, broadband operating
frequency, and flexible device architecture that makes them ideal for
a variety of wireless infrastructure applications, including 2G, 2.5G
and 3G cellular base station radios, high-capacity point-to-point and
point-to-multipoint radio links, wireless LAN and aerospace and defense
equipment.
The
ADRF6806 and
ADRF6807 are high dynamic range IQ demodulators with integrated
PLLs and VCOs. The fractional-N PLL/synthesizer generates a frequency
in the range of 2.8 GHz to 4.2 GHz. A programmable quadrature divider
divides the output frequency of the VCO down to the required local oscillator
(LO) frequency to drive the mixers in quadrature. Additionally, an output
divider generates a divided-down VCO signal for external use.
ADRF6806
Features: • LO Frequency Range: 50 to 525 MHz • IQ Frequency:
135 MHz • Phase Error: 0.5 Deg • Amplitude Error: 0.1 dB •
OIP3: +28.5 dBm • Noise Figure: 12.2 dB
ADRF6807 Features: • LO Frequency
Range: 700 to 1050 MHz • IQ Frequency: 170 MHz • Phase Error:
0.5 Deg • Amplitude Error: 0.1 dB • OIP3: +26.7 dBm • Noise
Figure: 13.1 dB The
ADRF6701 and
ADRF6702 provide quadrature modulator and synthesizer solutions
within a small 6 mm x 6 mm footprint while requiring minimal external
components. The low phase noise voltage controlled oscillator (VCO)
and high performance quadrature modulator make the devices suitable
for next generation communications systems requiring high signal dynamic
range and linearity. The integration of the IQ modulator, phase-locked
loop (PLL), and VCO provides for significant board savings and reduces
the bill-of-materials (BOM) and design complexity.
ADRF6701 Features: • RF Frequency
Range: 400 to 1300 MHz • IQ Frequency: 500 MHz • Carrier Suppress:
-45 dBm • Sideband Suppress: -40 dBc • Noise Floor: -158 dBm/Hz
• Output P1dB: +14 dBm • OIP3: +29 dBm • Voltage Supply: 4.75
to 5.25V • Supply Current: 210 mA
ADRF6702 Features: • RF Frequency
Range: 1200 to 2400 MHz • IQ Frequency: 750 MHz • Carrier Suppress:
-46.8 dBm • Sideband Suppress: -44.4 dBc • Noise Floor: -157.8
dBm/Hz • Output P1dB: +13.1 dBm • OIP3: +29.1 dBm • Voltage
Supply: 4.75 to 5.25V • Supply Current: 240 mA Common
configurations are in stock and available for immediate delivery. To

RF Cafe began life in 1996 as "RF Tools" in an AOL screen name web space totaling
2 MB. Its primary purpose was to provide me with ready access to commonly needed
formulas and reference material while performing my work as an RF system and circuit
design engineer. The World Wide Web (Internet) was largely an unknown entity at
the time and bandwidth was a scarce commodity. Dial-up modems blazed along at 14.4 kbps
while tying up your telephone line, and a nice lady's voice announced "You've Got
Mail" when a new message arrived...
