High performance double oven crystal oscillator delivers rubidium clock performance in less than half the volume and at lower cost
Inertial Aerosystems announces the availability of a high performance double oven crystal oscillator which delivers rubidium clock performance in less than half the volume and at lower cost.
Manufactured by US based MTI-Milliren Technologies, model 270 drops into a standard European CO-8 footprint and is 19.42mm high.
Available in frequency ranges from 4.8MHz to 90MHz, thermal stability is 2.0E-10 to 5.0E-10 over an ambient temperature range of -30 to +70C.
Typical 5MHz ageing is 5.0E-10 per day and 5.0E-08 per year.
Phase noise is -100 dBc/Hz at 1Hz offset and -155 dBc/Hz at 10KHz offset.
These units are designed for high volume production.
A low active component count ensures high reliability.
Ideal where space is at a premium, model 270 measures 36.14x27.20x19.42mm, has a steady state power of 1.7 watts and delivers 9dBm sine wave into 50 ohms with high spectral purity.
The many applications for this unit include GPS holdover and primary clock applications in digital and analogue PMR, Tetra and mobile phone base stations, atomic standard replacement, laboratory standards, test and measurement and telecommunication clocks at Stratum 2 level.
