GENERAL DESCRIPTION

This board is designed to allow the user to evaluate
the performance of the ADF4118 Frequency Synthe­sizer for PLL's (Phase Locked Loops). The block
diagram of the board is shown below. It contains the
ADF4118 synthesizer, a pc connector, TCXO for the
reference input, SMA connectors for the power sup­plies and RF output. There is also a low pass loop
filter (20kHz) and a VCO (Vari-L VCO190-1960T)
on board. A cable is included with the board to con­nect to a pc printer port.

The package also contains windows software to allow
easy programming of the synthesizer.

The board is powered from a single 9V battery. The
power supply ciruitry allows the user to choose either 3V
or 5V for the ADF4118 V
supply. The default settings are 3V for the ADF4118 V

and VP, and for the VCO

and 5V for the ADF4118 VP and for the VCO supply. It

is very important to note that the ADF4118 V
never exceed the ADF4118 V

. This can damage the de-

vice.

All components necessary for LO generation are catered
for on-board. The 10MHz TCXO from Vectron provides
the necessary Reference Input. The PLL is made up of
the ADF4118, passive loop filter (20kHz) and the VCO
190-1960T from Vari-L. The output is available at
RFOUT through a standard SMA connector. If the user
wishes they may use their own power supplies and refer­ence input. In this case, they need to insert SMA connec­tors to as shown on the silkscreen and block diagram.
The AD7706 A/D converter is used to monitor the power
supply voltage and current consumption of the ADF4118.
This helps the user pick the optimum synthesizer settings for
power consumption and also provides an alert if the battery
