Using separate synthesizers in a radio frequency (RF) device can
facilitate avoiding interference. Specifically, a first synthesizer can
be programmed to generate a first output frequency signal having an Frf
frequency. A second synthesizer can be programmed to generate a second
output frequency signal having an Fif frequency. Notably, a sum of the
Frf and Fif frequencies equals an Fchannel frequency of the RF device.
Thus, any RF channel can be received (or transmitted) with a plurality of
VCO frequencies for each of the two synthesizers. A table of Frf/Fif
combinations can be used to determine an Frf/Fif combination that avoids
a known interfering source. Alternatively, Frf/Fif combinations can be
randomly chosen until an interfering source is avoided.
