ADF5001
APPLICATION CIRCUIT
The ADF5001 can be connected either single-ended or differen-
tially to any of the Analog Devices PLL family of ICs. It is recom-
mended to use a differential connection for best performance
and to achieve maximum power transfer. The application circuit
shown in Figure 10 shows the ADF5001 used as the RF prescaler
in a microwave 16 GHz PLL loop. The ADF5001 divides down
the 16 GHz RF signal to 4 GHz, which is input differentially
into the
OP184
op amp, is used to provide the wide tuning ranges

typically required by microwave VCOs. The positive input pin of
the OP184 is biased at half the ADF4156 charge pump supply
(VP). This can be easily achieved using a simple resistor divider,
ensuring sufficient decoupling close to the +IN A pin of the
OP184 thereby allowing the use of a single positive supply for the
op amp. Alternatively, to optimize performance by ensuring a
clean bias voltage, a low noise regulator like the
used to power the resistor divider network or the +IN A pin
directly.
