1
Operating temperature range is –40°C to +85°C.
2
Guaranteed by design. Sample tested to ensure compliance.
3
I
CP
is internally modified to maintain constant-loop gain over the frequency range.

VCO
= 3.3 V; P = 32.
5
These characteristics are guaranteed for VCO Core Power = 15 mA.
6
Jumping from 2.05 GHz to 2.45 GHz. PFD frequency = 200 kHz; loop bandwidth = 10 kHz.
7
Using 50 Ω resistors to V
VCO
into a 50 Ω load. For tuned loads, see the Output Matching section.
8
The noise of the VCO is measured in open-loop conditions.
9
The synthesizer phase-noise floor is estimated by measuring the in-band phase noise at the output of the VCO and subtracting 20 log N (where N is the N divider value).
10
The phase noise is measured with the EV-ADF4360-1EB1Z Evaluation Board and the HP8562E Spectrum Analyzer. The spectrum analyzer provides the REF
IN
for the
synthesizer; offset frequency = 1 kHz.

13
The spurious signals are measured with the EV-ADF4360-1EB1Z Evaluation Board and the HP8562E Spectrum Analyzer. The spectrum analyzer provides the REF
IN
for
the synthesizer; f
REFOUT
= 10 MHz @ 0 dBm.
