That 3 GHz max input frequency covers the 2.4 GHz ISM band, 2.1–2.7 GHz cellular bands, and 1.5–1.6 GHz GNSS receivers with headroom — the phase detector and loop filter determine the actual output frequency, not the input ceiling. No external regulator is needed unless the rail is noisy; a ferrite bead + 100 nF cap at the Vdd pin is the usual decoupling on the 16-TSSOP footprint. The 16-TSSOP package is a 4.4 mm-wide body with 0.65 mm pin pitch — a standard two-layer board with a ground plane under the part handles the fan-out. The -RL7 suffix means tape-and-reel delivery, not cut tape or tray. If your pick-and-place line expects reeled parts, this is the correct ordering code; the sibling ADF4118BRUZ-RL is supplied on cut tape or Digi-Reel, which may require manual handling or a different feeder setup. ## Active production — no obsolescence pressure on the BOM Analog Devices continues to manufacture and support the 16-TSSOP package variant. For a production BOM line, this means no forced redesign cycle from a disappearing PLL — the part is available to order against your quantity. ROHS3 compliant, so it passes the current EU material-restriction requirements without an exemption. No separate lead-free qualification step needed at incoming inspection.","metaTitle":"ADF4118BRUZ-RL7 Analog Devices PLL Clock/Frequency","metaDescription":"ADF4118BRUZ-RL7: PLL-based RF frequency synthesizer, 3 GHz max, 2.7-5.5 V supply, -40°C to 85°C, 16-TSSOP.

That is the maximum at the reference or RF input pin; the synthesizer output frequency is set by the loop divider and the phase-detector comparison frequency."},{"question":"Is the ADF4118BRUZ-RL7 available in tape and reel?","answer":"Yes — the -RL7 suffix designates tape-and-reel packaging. The part is supplied on a 13-inch reel; the reel quantity is listed in the distributor's product page."},{"question":"What is the difference between ADF4118BRUZ and ADF4118BRUZ-RL7?","answer":"The base ADF4118BRUZ is typically supplied in tube or tray; the ADF4118BRUZ-RL7 is the tape-and-reel version.
