 Topic Finalized-
FREQUENCY SYNTHESIZER
Abstract
 A frequency synthesizer is an electronic circuit that generates
multiple frequencies based on a single reference frequency or
oscillator.
 A frequency synthesizer may use the techniques of frequency
multiplication, frequency division, direct digital
synthesis, frequency mixing, and phase-locked loops to generate its
frequencies.
 The stability of synthesizers depends basically on their reference
frequency and hence frequency synthesizer uses accurate reference
frequency provided by crystal oscillators.
Types of Frequency Synthesis

 Direct Digital Frequency Synthesizer

 Indirect Digital Frequency

 Advantages and Applications
 By using frequency synthesizer we can achieve desired frequency by
using only single master oscillator.
 Frequency mixing is possible like frequency multiplication and
division.
 RF level synthesizer provide high levels of performance in terms of
stability , accuracy and programmability.
