Description

The TLS is an advanced frequency synthesizer design using a unique triple loop architecture in a miniature low profile package that offers either a serial RS485 or parallel frequency control.

This unit is ideal for applications requiring more demanding phase noise, spectral purity and resolution requirements then are offered by a single phase-locked loop frequency synthesizer configuration.

These units are easily customized to specific requirements and offer a great performance to cost factor.
