1.0 General Description
The LMX2434SLE Evaluation Board simplifies evaluation of the LMX2434SLE 5.0 GHz/2.5 GHz
PLLatinum
no additional support circuitry.
The evaluation board consists of a LMX2434SLE device, RF and IF VCO modules, and RF and
IF loop filters built by discrete components. The SMA flange mount connectors are provided for
external reference input, RF and IF VCO outputs, and the power and grounding connection. A
cable assembly is bundled with the evaluation board for connecting to a PC through the parallel
printer port.
included can be run on a PC to facilitate the LMX2434SLE internal register programming for the
evaluation and measurement.
