DESCRIPTION
NEC's UPB1506GV and UPB1507GV are Silicon MMIC digital
prescalers manufactured with the NESAT™ IV silicon bipolar
process. They feature high frequency response to 3 GHz,
selectable divide-by-64, 128, or 256 modes, and operate on a
5 volt supply while drawing only 19 mA. The devices are
housed in a small 8 pin SSOP package that contributes to
system miniaturization. These devices are designed for use in
a PLL synthesizer for DBS and CATV settop and WLAN
applications.

Name Voltage Voltage
UPB1506GV UPB1507GV (V) (V)
2 1 IN – 2.9 Signal input pin. This pin should be coupled to the source with a capacitor
(eg 1000 pF).
3 8 IN – 2.9 Signal input bypass pin. This pin must be equipped with a bypass
capacitor (eg 1000 pF) to ground.
4 5 GND 0 – Ground pin. Ground pattern on the board should be formed as wide as
possible to minimize ground impedance.
1 3 SW1 H/L – Divided ratio input pin. The ratio can be controlled by the following input
data to these pins.
6 6 SW2
These pins should be equipped with a bypass capacitor (e.g. 1000 pF) to
ground.
82VCC 4.5 to 5.5 – Power supply pin. This pin must be equipped with bypass capacitor
(eg 1000 pF) to ground.
7 4 OUT – 2.6 to 4.7 Divided frequency output pin. This pin is designed as an emitter follower
output. This pin can be connected to CMOS input due to 1.2 Vp-p MIN
output.
5 7 NC – – No connection. This pin must be opened.
