This project
uses the CY7C68013A as the main controller and the ADF4351 phase-locked loop (PLL) as the primary loop unit. It provides RF signals from 35MHz to 4.4GHz, is compatible with ADI's official host computer software, and can directly control the output under
the open-source license
GPL 3.0.
Project-related functions
can be developed by writing your own program, or the firmware can be burned to the EEPROM via the provided binaries and used directly with ADI's official host computer software.
After flashing the firmware, the computer will recognize it as an ADF4xxx USB Adapter Board. If there is no firmware in the EEPROM, it will be recognized as a serial device (exclamation mark) .
Project Attributes:
This project is being publicly disclosed for the first time and is my original work. This project has not won any awards in other competitions.
The project
is complete with ADIsimPLL simulation
of the design principles
. The files are attached:

ADF4351 functional block diagram,
software description, and
BIN file. Write the following values sequentially from address 0x00 :
0xc0, 0x56, 0x04 , 0x03, 0xb4, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00. I'm using a Linux development board with i2ctools, so no programs are used. The official ADF435x host computer is shown in the physical demonstration (1GHz, 2.6GHz, 1.6GHz) . Design considerations (cy7c68013a): If the computer doesn't respond or displays an "unrecognized device" message, the chip is not properly soldered. There are three jumpers on the header; the top one is for VCC and GND. Do not short-circuit them. Other demo videos: Demo videos can be uploaded as attachments. Attachments can only be 50MB in size. Files larger than 50MB can be hosted on other cloud storage services or video websites; simply include the link here. Project attachments: Entries participating in the event must upload the relevant program attachments to an open-source platform or personal code storage cloud. Attachments can be uploaded up to a maximum of 50MB (please do not upload to the LCSC workspace, as there are limitations).
