The ADRF6701 is a low-power, high-performance, 400 MHz to 1250 MHz quadrature modulator with an integrated 750 MHz to 1150 MHz frac-N PLL and integrated VCO.
The ADRF6701 is a quadrature IQ modulator that integrates a fractional‑N PLL and VCO, delivering output frequencies from 400 MHz to 1250 MHz. It features SPI programming, integrated LDOs, and a low‑phase‑noise VCO, enabling compact board designs with minimal external components.
Typical applications include cellular communication systems (GSM/EDGE, CDMA2000, W‑CDMA, LTE), broadband wireless access, and satellite modems. The device is supplied in a 40‑lead 6 mm × 6 mm lead‑frame chip‑scale package (LFCSP) and operates from a 5 V supply over a –40 °C to +85 °C temperature range.
