The CVCO55CC-3950-3950 voltage controlled oscillator (VCO) from Crystek operates at 3950 MHz with a control voltage range of 0.5- to 4.5-V. This VCO features a typical phase noise of -111 dBc/Hz at 10 kHz offset and has excellent linearity. Output power is typically 4.5 dBm.
Engineered and manufactured in the USA, the model CVCO55CC-3950-3950 is packaged in the industry-standard 0.5- x 0.5-inch SMD package. Input voltage is 5 V, with a max current consumption of 36 mA. Pulling and Pushing are minimized to 1.0 MHz pk-pk and 1.0 MHz/V, respectively. Second harmonic suppression is -20 dBc typical.
The VCOis ideal for use in applications such as digital radio equipment, fixed wireless access, satellite communications systems, and base stations.
