The ADF4210/ADF4211/ADF4212/ADF4213 is a dual frequency synthesizer which can be used to implement local oscillators in the up-conversion anddown-conversion sections of wireless receivers and transmitters. They can provide the LO for both the RF and IF sections. They consist of a low-noise digital PFD (Phase Frequency Detector), a precision charge pump, a programmable reference divider, programmable A and B counters and a dual-modulus prescaler (P/P+1). The A (6-bit) and B (12-bit)counters, in conjunction with the dual modulus prescaler (P/P+1), implement an N divider (N= BP+A). In addition, the 15-bit reference counter (R Counter), allows selectable REF_IN frequencies at the PFD input. A complete PLL (Phase-Locked Loop) can be implemented if the synthesizers are used with an external loop filter and VCO's (Voltage Controlled Oscillators) Control of all the on-chip registers is viaa simple 3-wire interface. The devices operate with a 3V ( ± 10%) or 5V( ± 10%) power supply and can be powered down when not in use. 

At least one model within this product family is in production and available for purchase. The product is appropriate for new designs but newer alternatives may exist.
