OUTPUT
1100MHz Very Low Current Three Modulus Divider
The SP8713 is a switchable divide by 64/65/72
programmable divider which is guaranteed to operate up to
1100MHz. It will operate from a supply of 2.7V to 5.25V and
requires typically 4.1mA (including the output current). It also
features a power down facility for battery economy.
The RF inputs are internally biased and should be capacitively
coupled to the signal source. The output is designed to interface
with CMOS synthesisers, such as the NJ88C50.

OPERATING NOTES
The RF inputs are biased internally and are normally coupled to the signal source with suitable capacitors.
The output stage has a novel design and is intended to drive a CMOS synthesiser input. External pull-down resistors or
circuits are not required. The SP8713 is
The device will operate down to DC frequencies for non-sinusoidal signals provided that the input slew rate is better than
100V/µs.
POWER DOWN (pin 7) is connected internally to a pull-up resistor. If the battery economy facility is not used, pin 7 should
be connected to V
