Based on the Analog Devices ADF4351 PLL chip this self-contained board can be used as a local oscillator for VHF, UHF and Microwave projects.
Specifications:
- 31MHz to 4400MHz
- Fractional-N synthesizer capable of 1KHz (or better) frequency resolution
- 2 x RF outputs +7dBm from 500MHz to 2GHz
- 4 software programmable output levels at 2dB increments
- No Tuning required
- Frequency selection to one of 16 preset values (optional)
- RS232 interface for programing of frequency and power levels
- Frequency offset for TX (optional)
- Several reference frequency options:
- Internal OCXO or VCXO reference
- External Reference up to 100MHz
- Automatically switch from internal to external frequency reference
- CW Beacon firmware available
Having 2 high level outputs is useful for applications sharing the same LO module between 2 transverters, or driving separate RX and TX stages.
