DESCRIPTION
CDC421xxx is a high-performance, low-phase-noise clock generator. It has an integrated low-noise, LC-based
voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO) that operates within the 1.75 GHz–2.35 GHz frequency range. It has an
integrated crystal oscillator that operates in conjunction with an external AT-cut crystal to produce a stable
frequency reference for the PLL-based frequency synthesizer. The output frequency (f
out
) is proportional to the
frequency of the input crystal (f
xtal
).
The device operates in a 3.3 V supply environment and is characterized for operation from –40
°
C to 85
°
C.
CDC421xxx is available in a QFN-24 package.
