5GHz VCO
A fully integrated VCO requiring no external elements such
as inductors and varactors greatly simplifies low cost local
oscillator synthesized applications.
Included in this differential design is a low-power standby
function and a stable process and temperature biasing
operation.
The ISL3084 is housed in a 16 lead QFN package
well-suited for PCMCIA and miniPCI board applications.

Data Sheet
Input tuning voltage from loop filter. Sensitivity to external injected noise to KVCO. Careful noise-free
layout recommended.
Supply pins. Requires high quality capacitor RF decoupling. Phase noise behavior proportional to supply
pushing specifications. Use good quality, low-frequency decoupling/filtering techniques.
Power enable control pin: VCO enabled high.
Differential VCO output. Terminate into 100: differential impedance. Terminate one end into 50: when
single end output with equivalent loss of power.
Use high quality .68
