New RFPRO Series Pocket Reference Oscillator from Crystek Corporation Integrates Sinewave Saw Oscillator in SMA Housing



Fort Myers, FL, June 8, 2009 - Crystek introduces the new RF Pocket Reference Oscillator (RFPRO Series), the industry's first frequency control product to integrate a complete True SineWave SAW (surface acoustic wave) oscillator in a rugged SMA housing. Connecting the RFPRO Series' female SMA side to +3.3Vdc will output a clean -135dBc/Hz phase noise signal at 10Khz offset. In effect, each RFPRO is a fixed-frequency portable signal generator.

Crystek's RFPRO Series oscillator offers frequency stability of ±150ppm over -20°C to 70°C (operating temperature range rated at -40° to 85°C; storage -45° to 90°C). RFPRO Series oscillators are available off-the-shelf in 500 MHz and 1GHz frequencies output.

Engineered and manufactured in the USA, the RFPRO Series of oscillators is well-suited for laboratory and test instrument use.

The RFPRO is currently available from Crystek's stocking distributors. For pricing details, contact Crystek Corporation.
