Integrated Synthesizer and Modulator

The RFMD2080 and RFMD2081 are extremely broadband devices capable of transmitting from 45MHz to 2700MHz and are suitable for satellite, wireless point-to-point systems, software defined radio, digital repeaters, and other QPSK/QAM modulator applications. The integration of the local oscillator using an advanced fractional-N synthesizer, along with the broadband nature of the components, offers the industry’s most competitive combination of functionality, performance, versatility, and size.

The RFMD2081 has a baseband bandwidth of up to 100MHz. The RFMD2080 includes a baseband interface incorporating programmable filtering and gain control, with bandwidth programmable from 1.5MHz to 10MHz.

Features

  • RF Output Frequency Range 45MHz to 2700MHz
