Techniques for generating high-frequency signals have evolved rapidly during the last decade, with traditional analog techniques such as phase-locked loops (PLLs) now often sharing space with newer direct-digital-synthesizer (DDS) circuits on integrated frequency-generation modules. To commemorate this Frequency Synthesis issue theme, this Special News Report will survey some of the current suppliers of RF and microwave frequency synthesizers and examine some of the differences in the technologies used in...
