Crystek's CVCO55CXT-5800-5800 CRO (coaxial resonator oscillator) is a coaxial-based VCO with an internal frequency doubler. The oscillator operates at 5800MHz with a tuning voltage range of 0.5 to 4.5V DC. The coaxial VCO features a phase noise of -100dBc/Hz at 10kHz offset and has good linearity. The CRO exhibits an output power of 0dBm into a 50Ω load with a supply of 8V DC and a current consumption of 15mA maximum.
The CRO is housed in a 0.5x0.5inch package. Pushing and pulling are both minimised to 1.5MHz/V and 0.5MHz, respectively. Second harmonic suppression is -30dBc. The oscillator is suitable for digital radio equipment, fixed wireless access, satellite communications systems, and base stations.
