8-Channel, 10 MHz Precision ReferenceWith Sine and Logic Outputs
ITS-6200
-
The ITS-6200 is a versatile 10 MHz laboratory frequency reference useful for synchronizing test instruments to a common standard. Eight outputs are provided, each which can be configured independently as sinewave or logic level square-wave signals. Additionally, CMOS logic levels can be set for 5V, 3.3V, or 2.5V logic family compatibility. A 10 MHz reference input is provided to phase lock the ITS-6200 to an external reference, such as a GPS or Rubidium standard, or cascade multiple ITS-6200 units for additional outputs. The low phase noise and high stability OCXO within the ITS-6200 is suitable for the most demanding applications, whether free-running or phase locked. The compact size and low power consumption makes the instrument highly portable and suitable for AC-powered operation in the lab or battery operation in mobile or field applications.

6.8 GHz Wideband Synthesizer with Integrated VCO
ADF4356
-
The ADF4356 allows implementation of fractional-N or integer-N phase-locked loop (PLL) frequency synthesizers when used with an external loop filter and an external reference frequency. A series of frequency dividers at another frequency output permits operation from 53.125 MHz to 6800 MHz. The ADF4356 has an integrated VCO with a fundamental output frequency ranging from 3400 MHz to 6800 MHz. In addition, the VCO frequency is connected to divide by 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, or 64 circuits that allow the user to generate RF output frequencies as low as 53.125 MHz. For applications that require isolation, the RF output stage can be muted. The mute function is both pin- and software-controllable.
