Connectorized Clock Oscillators For PCI, SONET/SDH And FPGA Applications

The PLXO Series Phase-Locked Crystal Oscillators from EM Research are designed to operate at select custom frequencies from 5 to 500 MHz as reference clocks in military and commercial rf/microwave systems. Locked to an external frequency reference (or optional internal reference), the PLXO units feature very low RMS jitter (<0.05 pSec, typical), excellent phase noise (Fout = 233 MHz, < -120 dBc/Hz @ 1 KHz, typical) and low power consumption at +3.3, +5, +8 or +12VDC. Housed in a miniature connectorized package (1.50" x 1.50" x 0.6") to withstand harsh environments, the PLXO units also feature no sub-harmonics and operate over an optional wide temperature range (-40°C to +85°C). Applications include use as references for Discrete Phase Detectors, Frequency Synthesizers, FPGA, DDS and AD / DA Converters, as well as for mm-Wave VSAT Converters and PTP / PTMP Radios. EM Research designs and manufactures all products in Reno, Nevada USA.
