Frequency Prescalers

The HL590x series is a wideband frequency prescaler with minimal additive phase noise.

It supports division ratios of 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, or 64 depending on the model, from 100 MHz to 24 GHz. The output frequency ranges from 12.5 MHz to 20 GHz with a buffered typical output power of 2 dBm.

The design operates over a maximum temperature range of -40°C to +85°C utilizing internal voltage regulation to allow for a wide range of supply voltages from +7 to 16 Vdc or +5 to 16 Vdc, depending on the model.

Applications include: PLL Applications, Test Instrumentation, Point to Point Microwave Radio, and Satellite Communication Systems.
