Description

Polaris’ Microwave Frequency Synthesizers (PMFS synthesizers) operate in the frequency range from 3.4 GHz to 35 GHz and are categorized into fixed frequency synthesizers (PMFS-F synthesizers), variable frequency synthesizers (PMFS-V synthesizers), and high power synthesizers (PMFS-P synthesizers). The PMFS synthesizers employ a fractional-N PLL architecture to provide fine frequency resolution with excellent spurious and phase noise performance. The PMFS synthesizers are available in a variety of configurations, including a RF output power and output frequency range options.

●  PMFS-F synthesizers (Microwave Fixed Frequency Synthesizers)
The PMFS-F synthesizers can be easily customized to any fixed frequency upon request between 3.4 GHz and 35 GHz

●  PMFS-V synthesizers (Microwave Variable Frequency Synthesizers)
The PMFS-V synthesizers can change the output frequency with very simple programming command and have a non-volatile memory feature that will return to the last set frequency when power is turned on.

●  PMFS-P synthesizers (Microwave High Power Fixed Frequency Synthesizers)
The PMFS-P synthesizers are a high power fixed frequency synthesizer that outputs RF power up to 20 dBm.
