The FMFD2001 is a coaxial packaged Frequency Divider module that operates

across a wide input frequency range from 500 MHz to 18 GHz and supports a

divide ratio of 2. Output Frequency is 250 MHz to 9 GHz. Impressive broadband

typical performance of this Prescaler includes output power of -4 dBm and

SSB phase noise of -147 dBc/Hz at 100 KHz offset. This exceptional technical

performance is achieved through the use of a hybrid MIC PCB solder assembly

which is RoHS and REACH compliant. This frequency divider design requires +12

Vdc typical bias voltage, operates over maximum temperature range of -40°C to

+85°C, and has an absolute maximum rating for input power of +13 dBm. The

rugged and compact package suppors SMA Female connectors, RFI and Ground

Pins. For highly reliable operation, the model is guaranteed to meet MIL-STD-202

environmental test conditions for Humidity, Shock, Vibration, and Altitude.
