Description

The LMX1404-EP evaluation module (EVM) is designed to evaluate the performance of the LMX1404-EP, which is a four-output, ultra-low additive jitter radio-frequency (RF) buffer, divider and multiplier. The device can buffer RF frequencies up to 15GHz, multiply RF outputs up to 6.4GHz, and divide outputs by up to 6.4GHz. This board consists of an LMX1404-EP device and an integrated USB2ANY programmer.
