  • ADF4355-3 programming.

    Hello. Could someone answer the following about the ADF4355-3 synthesizer:

    1. If I want to use software power down mode after I programmed the IC, is there a register sequence to get back to power on mode or do I just flip the bit back? Is it possible…

  • ADF4355-3 Thermal Issue

    Hi,

    I have been having repeatable issue with the ADF4355-3 where heating up the IC will cause unstable RF output. What I'm seeing is the Lock Detect mux output is toggling between '1' and '0' repeatedly. When I update the registers with a new frequency…

  • ev-adf4355-3 power supplies 5V?

    The ADF4355-3 data sheet says all power supplies must be 3.3V

    I am looking at "EZ-ADF4355-3SD1Z User Guide". In the schematic and parts list it has the VCO etc supplied from a 5V regulator (reference VR2). Is this a mistake?

  • ADF4355-3 has spurious at 1.8kHz

    Sir:

    Our board output of ADF4355-3 has spurious at 1. 8kHz.  The spurious is constant in different output frequency, bleed current and CP current. 

    We attempt to replace DC-DC with external power supply，but the spurious still unchanded. 

    We have a few questions…

  • ADF4355-3 failure to lock and general questions

    I am trying to use ADF4355-3 as an upgrade for an existing product that successfully uses ADF4350.

    I do not have the evaluation board, but I am using ADIsimPLL to verify some register settings and my loop filter

    I am pretty sure I am communicating SPI…

  • ADF4355-3

    Sir,

    I had designed recently ADF4355-3 own board.In that I want to know

       1. whether Vvco and Vdd of ADF4355-3 can be given same 3.3v from one regulator or not?

       2. what happens if these  Pin23(Vref) and Pin24(Vbias) are connected to 3.3v?

       3.Does any thing…

  • ADF4355-3

    In ADF4355-3  frequency synthesizer , 

    can  i use both RF outputs A and B at the same time ? 

    because iam using this IC to generate LO for two channels at the same time .

    what is the Rf output level of the both A and B at 4 GHz ? 

  • ADF4355-3 spurs

    Hi,

    We are using your evaluation board of synthesizer ADF4355-3.We are feeding externally 122.88MHz as reference,from a clean source without spurs.We locked 4355-3 and ensured 1KHz resolution.We are observing at every setting of output frequency…
