Title: Help with VCO design
Post by azw on Apr 11^th, 2014, 12:15am

Hi,

I have a project to design a VCO which i have difficulties with. Could
someone please help me out? I have the following specifications:
band: 1430 to 2230 MHz
comparison frequency: 7.8125 kHz
VCO output power: 10 mW

I don't know how to find the value of the needed varactors, the rest of the elements and the s-parameters.

A help or a direction would be much appreciated!
