Overview
The ADF4360-0BCPZ, produced by Analog Devices Inc., is a fully integrated integer-N synthesizer and voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO). This device is designed for a center frequency of 2600 MHz, with an optional divide-by-2 feature that allows for an RF output between 1200 MHz and 1360 MHz. The ADF4360-0BCPZ is controlled via a simple 3-wire interface and operates with a power supply ranging from 3.0 V to 3.6 V. It also features power-down capability when not in use, enhancing power efficiency.
