Small Signal Freq. Divider (f/2, f/4), NECL Outputs

Applications: GHz Frequency Division in Device Test and Systems Integration High speed Clock signal Generation for SONET applications An Essential Lab Tool for Working with GHz ECL Circuits Features: 2 GHz Toggle Frequency Single-ended or Differential Inputs Complementary NECL Outputs drive 50 Ω Loads terminated to -2 V DC Coupled I/Os SMA I/O Connectors Ready-to-Use 1.3 x 2.9 x 3.9-in.Module includes a ±8.5 V AC/DC Adapter Description The PRL-255CN is a dual-channel ÷2 and ÷4 frequency divider with DC-coupled, 50 Ω comparator inputs, and complementary NECL outputs. The maximum frequency of operation is greater than 2 GHz, and the minimum input signal required is 10 mVPP at 300 MHz. It is ideally suited for dividing mV sinewave signals or small pulses from laser oscillator photodiodes. The two channels can be cascaded to provide a ÷8 function. The PRL-255CN is an essential lab tool for device test and systems integration in wireless and digital communications applicatio
