hi
i want to build a low power transmitter and receiver which can send and receive data at 1.6ghz
now i have two idea going around in my mind
1. to design a pll based frequency synthesizer for 100 mhz and then using a frequency multiplier to multiply the frequency 16 times to get 1600 mhz final frequency
2. to directly design a pll based frequency synthesizer for 1600 mhz
please suggest me which is the best method to use or if you know any other method please let me know.
the main problem i am facing is inductors, when ever i think about it i feel like pulling my hair, how can i make inductor for nano henries or from where i can get femto farad capacitors?
also after some searching i found this article:h**p://petlibrary.tripod.com/rfmod.htm
can someone tell me which components are responsible for frequency multiplication there (other than two Schottky diodes, D1 and D2)?
i would really appreciate if someone can answer my question, i have already searched and read many articles for this but none helped me.
thanks
