VCO com m ercial series - Wide band
WIDE BAND VCO
Fe a t u re s
This series proposes wide band VCO:
• bandwidth:
from 20% up to the octave
• frequency range: 140 MHz to 2700 MHz
• phase noise:
as low as -113 dBc @ 12.5 kHz from the carrier
De s c rip t io n
Wide band VCOs are required in Radio Links, instrum entation and m ilitary
applications. Their bandwidth (BW) and phase noise perform ances avoid the
use of bank of switched VCO: design is sim pler and cost lower.Tuning voltage
depends on the BW, typically 0 to 5 V and up to 18 V for octave BW VCO.
Power output is up to 7 dBm .
All our parts are m anufactured with lead free technology.
