Original Press Release:
Low Cost VCO at Microwave Frequencies Provides Exceptionally Low Phase Noise Solution for Test and Measurement Systems
Featuring: RoHS Compliant, Low Phase Noise, Wide Bandwidth, Extended Operating Temperature Range, Compact Package
SAN DIEGO, May 1, 2006: Z-Communications, Inc. a global leader in providing Voltage Controlled Oscillators (VCO) to meet tomorrow's low phase noise requirements is proud to introduce the V950ME09-LF for demanding test and measurement systems. This RoHS compliant model utilize patented design techniques to achieve an unequalled single side band (SSB) phase noise specification of -89dBc/kHz @ 10kHz offset from carrier. The second harmonic suppression is better than -18dBc. This model operates at 12Vdc supply and draws 58mA (typical), and covers frequency range of 4200 to 5000 MHz from 1 to 12Vdc of control voltage. This low cost, rugged device has a typical tuning sensitivity of 124MHz/V and exhibits good tuning linearity over the frequency band and over extended operating temperature range of -40 to 85 ºC.
The V950ME09-LF comes in Z-Communications' industry standard MINI surface mount package measuring 0.50 in. x 0.50 in. x 0.22 in. This VCO is ideal for automated surface mount assembly and reflow; they are available in tape and reel packaging for production requirements. Furthermore this technology is available for a reasonable price, given its unsurpassed quality and unbeatable performance.
