Fully integrated frequency translator for wireless communications

Vectron International launched its smallest fully integrated frequency translator (FCXO), FX-501 offering tight phase noise performance.
Designers in the communications, industrial, test and military markets will benefit from the flexibility of a smaller translator without significant adjustments to their manufacturing processes.
Used in the base stations and wireless communications systems, the FX-501 will reduce research and development time and costs, shorten time-to-market, improve phase noise and enable plug-and-play solutions, all with the same high performance over a wide frequency range.

The smaller FCXO can also be used for medical equipment, spectrum analyzers and phase noise measuring.

The typical features are:

1. Has an output frequency range of 10 MHz to 160 MHz.
2. Input frequency 2 - 100 MHz
3. Low Phase Noise:
Typical performance at 122.88 MHz is,
              -90 dBc/Hz at 10 Hz;
              -108 dBc/Hz at 100 Hz;
              -130 dBc/Hz at 1 kHz;
              -148 dBc/Hz at 10 kHz;
              -156 dBc/Hz at 100 kHz
4. LVCMOS output signal
5. Supply voltage 3.3 V
6. Surface Mount Package
7. Re-flow Process Compatible
8. Built-in PLL Circuit

Size: 9 mm x 14 mm
