Overview
The Crystek Corporation CRBV55BE-2900-3300 is a voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO) operating within the 2900 MHz to 3300 MHz frequency range. It utilizes a Redbox package with an SMA female connector interface. The device requires a supply voltage of 7.6 VDC to 8.4 VDC, with a typical value of 8.0 VDC. Maximum supply current is specified at 28 mA. The unit supports an operating temperature range from -40°C to +85°C. Typical phase noise performance is rated at -95 dBc/Hz.
Feature Summary
- Provides stable microwave frequency generation across the 2900-3300 MHz band
- Features integrated tuning control via variable voltage input
- Designed for robust operation in industrial temperature environments
Applications
- Microwave communication systems
- Test and measurement instrumentation
- Radar subsystems
Procurement Notes
Verify the specific ordering suffix and mechanical dimensions against the official Crystek datasheet before integration. Confirm that the required tuning voltage range aligns with system design constraints. Ensure power supply stability meets the 7.6-8.4 VDC specification to maintain phase noise performance. Check for any updated revision notes regarding pinout or thermal requirements.
Selection Notes
Select this component when a fixed-frequency-range VCO is required for C-band applications. Consider the Redbox form factor for space-constrained designs. Evaluate the -95 dBc/Hz phase noise metric against system sensitivity requirements. Verify compatibility with the SMA female interface for RF interconnects.
Part Context
This model belongs to Crystek's CRBV series of voltage-controlled oscillators. These components are engineered for high-reliability microwave applications. The series offers various frequency options tailored for different communication bands. The CRBV55BE variant specifically targets the 2900-3300 MHz spectrum.
Replacement Considerations
Consult official manufacturer substitution lists for direct equivalents. Cross-reference mechanical footprint and pin configuration carefully. Verify electrical parameter compatibility including tuning slope and output power levels.
