ADRF5019
Recommended for New Designs
The ADRF5019 is a nonreflective, single pole, double throw (SPDT) RF switch manufactured in a silicon process.
The ADRF5019 operates from 100 MHz to 13...
Datasheet
ADRF5019 on Analog.com
We have a ADRF5019 with two possible input clocks of 6 GHz, where the source either comes from our board, or it comes from an external source which is synchronized to a larger system. What is the propagation delay through the ADRF5019, so we can calculate our ability to synchronize multiple board downstream of our own?
I think that you can calculate this from the S-Parameters. I picked a relatively low frequency at which the wavelength is long enough so that there is no chance of the signal going through more than one cylce inside the part (freq is 200 MHz, Lambda is 1.35 m). If we convert the S21p value from the s-parameter file (-2.624 deg) to time, we get a propagation delay 36.4 ns. I check this at other spot frequencies and got the similar results (i.e. 35 to 36 ns).
A colleague spotted that my manual calculations were off by and order of magnitude. He pulled the s-parameters into ADS and plotted delay vs frequency which is in the 30-36 ps range.
