Timing Clock
The output of this device is generated and filtered by narrowband quartz SAW elements at 718.864 MHz. The
configuration of this clock is intended to provide a pure signal for optical timing applications in noisy signal
environments. The Q/Qbar differential output swing of ±1 volt about 0 vdc has symmetry better than ±1% into
loads from 40 ohms to 70 ohms; determined by customer application. The long term frequency accuracy is
set by an external reference source allowing this device to complete a Phase Lock Loop design without the
usual noise and jitter problems associated with PLL’s.
