CVCO55CC-2048-2048

Overview

The CVCO55CC-2048-2048 is a Voltage Controlled Oscillator (VCO) from Crystek Corporation, designed for microwave frequency applications. It operates within a center frequency range of 2048 MHz to 2048 MHz, utilizing a coaxial resonator structure in an SMD package measuring 0.5 x 0.5 inches. The device requires a control voltage between 0.5 V and 4.5 V and draws a current rating of 30 mA. It delivers an output power of 7 ±2 dBm with a typical second harmonic suppression of -20 dBc. Key performance metrics include a phase noise type of -120 dBc/Hz, a pushing factor of 1 MHz/V, and a tuning sensitivity of 5 MHz/V.

Feature Summary

• Utilizes a coaxial resonator design for stable microwave oscillation
• Operates as a voltage-controlled oscillator with defined tuning sensitivity
• Provides specified output power with controlled harmonic suppression

Applications

• Microwave communication systems
• Frequency synthesis circuits
• Test and measurement equipment

Procurement Notes
