Description

This is a  product line of phase-locked crystal controlled oscillators.  These units offer excellent phase noise performance at frequencies up to 125 MHz.

These units are ordinarily phase locked to a system's primary frequency standard, such as 5 or 10 MHz.  A typical application of these units is as a reference frequency for a PLDRO.  These units also are excellent for use as second or third LOs in a high performance receiver or transmitter.
