5GHZ ÷ 8 Fixed Modulus Divider

The SP8908 is one of a range of very high speed low power prescalers for professional applications. The dividing elements are static D type flip flops and therefore allow operation down to DC if the drive signal is a pulse waveform with fast risetime. The output stage has a differential current output and provides a direct drive into a 50 ohm load.

Features
• Very High Operating Speed
• Operation down to DC with Square Wave Input
• Silicon Technology for Low Phase Noise (Typically better than 2140dBc/Hz at 1KHz)
• 5V Single Supply Operation
• Low Power Dissipation: 360mW (Typ.)
• Surface Mount Plastic Package
