The MAX2870 datasheet shows that, if BDIV=0, the frequency of RFOUTB is the same as RFOUTA. Is it possible to deactivate RFOUTA and use only RFOUTB, but still having the frequency of RFOUTA at RFOUTB?

Question

Accepted Answer

The RFA_EN (register 4, bit 5) and RFB_EN (register 4, bit 8) or pin RFOUT_EN just control the last output stage (please see attached) enable or disable, the dividers will keep working even RFOUTA disabled, so we can get the same frequency configuration for RFOUTB as RFOUTA even RFOUTA disabled.
