Description

The mmWave PLL is a sophisticated Phase Locked Loop designed for ultra-precision wireless communications and radar applications. This fractional-N PLL synthesizer provides low phase noise performance suitable for demanding carrier and fast chirp FMCW waveforms, critical in modern communication networks. Its operational range corresponds to fundamental frequencies of 19.00-20.15 GHz, scalable to radar bands of 38-40.5 GHz and 76-81 GHz through frequency multipliers, highlighting its versatility across applications.

The mmWave PLL supports a customizable frequency range from 19 GHz to 81 GHz, ensuring tailored application requirements can be achieved. Integrated design features include a built-in sequencer, calibration, and self-test capabilities, all of which contribute to the PLL's robustness. The unit is compliant with automotive standards like AEC-Q100 Grade 1, making it suitable for rigorous environments, such as automotive radar systems.

Technical specifications reveal its operational proficiency with power consumption at under 120 mA and operating temperatures from -40 to +125 °C (ambient) and -40 to +150 °C (junction). This is supported by SPI control interfaces for precise manageability, ensuring integration efforts align seamlessly within varied system architectures.
