DESCRIPTION
NEC's UPB1509GV is a Silicon RFIC digital prescaler manu-
factured with the NESAT™ IV silicon bipolar process. It fea-
tures frequency response to 1 GHz, selectable divide-by-two,
four, or eight modes, and operates from a 3 to 5 volt supply
while drawing only 5.3 milliamps. The device is housed in a
small 8 pin SSOP package that contributes to system miniatur-
ization. The low power consumption and wide supply range
makes the device well suited for cellular and cordless tele-
phones as well as DBS receiver applications.

ELECTRICAL CHARACTERISTICS (TA = -40 to +85°C, VCC = 2.2 to 5.5 V, unless otherwise noted)
Date Published: June 28, 2005
Pin No. Symbol Applied Pin Description
Voltage Voltage
1VCC1 2.2 to 5.5 –Power supply pin of input amplifier and dividers. This pin must be
equipped with bypass capacitor (eg 1000 pF) to ground.
2 IN –1.7 to 4.95 Signal input pin. This pin should be coupled with a capacitor (eg 1000 pF).
3 IN –1.7 to 4.95 Signal input bypass pin. This pin must be equipped with a bypass
capacitor (eg 1000 pF) to ground.
4GND 0 –Ground pin. Ground pattern on the board should be formed as wide as
possible to minimize ground impedance.
5SW1 H/L –Divided ratio control pin. Divide ratio can be controlled by the following
(VCC/OPEN) input voltages to these pins.
6SW2 H/L
(VCC/OPEN)
These pins must each be equipped with a bypass capacitor to ground.
7OUT –1.0 to 4.7 Divided frequency output pin. This pin is designed as an emitter follower
output. This pin can output 0.1 Vp-p min with a 200 Ω load.
This pin should be coupled to load device with a capacitor (eg 1000 pF).
8VCC2 2.2 to 5.5 –Power supply pin of output buffer amplifier. This pin must be equipped
with bypass capacitor (eg 1000 pF) to ground.
