PE97240
Product Specification
Evaluation Board
The PE97240 evaluation board was designed to
demonstrate optimal phase noise performance
when using an external and stable low noise
reference source. The device may be
programmed serially using the USB interface
board with the applications software or directly by
using jumpers to set the register values.
Additionally, an external VCO may be used for
specific operating frequencies.
The evaluation board consists of a four layer stack
with two outer layers made of Rogers 4350B (_r =
3.48) and two inner layers of FR406 (_r = 4.80).
The 12 mil (0.30 mm) thick inner layers provide
ground planes for the RF transmission lines. The
total thickness of the board is 62 mils (1.57 mm).
