SKY74038: 2.6 GHz/800 MHz Dual Fractional-N/lnteger-N
Frequency Synthesizer
Applications
Description
Skyworks SKY74038 is a complete, low-power 2.6 GHz/800 MHz
dual frequency synthesizer. The device provides both Radio
Frequency (RF) channels and Intermediate Frequency (IF)
channels. Fractional-N operation offers low phase noise, fast
settling time, and low spurious tones for RF channels. A standard
integer-N division is used for IF channels.
• Multi-slot GSM/DCS
• PCS/W-CDMA
• Portable communication systems
• Dual-mode cellular telephone systems
• Spread spectrum receivers
• Wireless LAN systems
The three-wire serial interface provides programmable control of
the frequency synthesizer to support dual-conversion
transceivers.
• Wireless routers and WLL systems
• SATCOM receivers
The SKY74038 is available as a 20-pin Thin Shrink Small Outline
Package (TSSOP) (-13 option) or as a Pb-free 20-pin TSSOP (-21
option). The device package and pin configuration are shown in
Figure 1. A functional block diagram of the SKY74038 is shown in
Figure 2.
