While operating off a 5VDC supply and consuming typically 25mA of current, the device delivers 0.5±2.5dBm of output power into a 50Ω load. The VCO, which operates across a temperature range of -40 to 85ºC, features typical second harmonic suppression of -15dBc. The low noise device is suitable for test equipment and satellite communication applications.
The CLV1625B-LF is offered in Z-Comm’s standard, low profile MINI-16L package, which measures 12.7×12.7×3.3mm. Suitable for surface mount assembly and reflow, the VCO is available in tape and reel packaging.
