Additional Details:
The ROS-5776-119+ VCO operates over a specified frequency range. It exhibits low phase noise, which is crucial for maintaining signal integrity in sensitive applications. The pushing figure indicates the frequency change due to variations in the supply voltage, while the pulling figure represents the frequency change due to load variations. Both pushing and pulling are minimized in this design to ensure frequency stability. The VCO is typically used in conjunction with a PLL to achieve precise frequency control. It requires an external tuning voltage to adjust the output frequency. The compact surface-mount package allows for easy integration into high-density circuit boards.
It has good harmonic suppression and is aqueous washable.
