CVCO55CC-2120-2200

Overview

The CVCO55CC-2120-2200 is a voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO) manufactured by Crystek Corporation. It operates within a frequency range of 2120 MHz to 2200 MHz, with a center frequency of 2160 MHz. The device utilizes a coaxial resonator design and requires a supply voltage of 8V. Control input spans from 0.5 V to 22 V. Output power is specified at 0 ±3 dBm. Phase noise performance is rated at -12 dBc. The component is housed in a 16-QFN package variant with dimensions of 12.7 x 12.7 mm. It complies with lead-free and RoHS standards.

Feature Summary

• Coaxial resonator construction for stable oscillation
• Wide voltage control input range
• RoHS compliant manufacturing process

Applications

• RF signal generation circuits
• Wireless communication transceivers
• Test and measurement equipment

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against official Crystek documentation to ensure correct pinout and electrical characteristics. Confirm that the 16-QFN package variant matches the required footprint for PCB layout. Check for any recent revision updates in the datasheet that may affect thermal or electrical parameters. Ensure compliance with local environmental regulations regarding lead-free components.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a center frequency near 2160 MHz is required with a tuning range extending up to 2200 MHz. Consider the 0 ±3 dBm output power level for system gain requirements. Evaluate the 8V supply voltage constraint against available power rails. The wide control voltage range allows for flexible tuning circuit designs without additional amplification stages.

Part Context

This part belongs to the CVCO55 series of voltage-controlled oscillators from Crystek Corporation. The series includes various models covering different frequency bands and package options. The CC suffix typically denotes specific packaging or tuning characteristics within this family. Other variants in the series include CVCO55BE and CVCO55CL models with distinct frequency ranges.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes are not explicitly listed in public data. Similar parts in the CVCO55 series include CVCO55CC-1920-2120 and CVCO55CC-2120-2320, but these have different frequency ranges. Cross-referencing with other manufacturers' VCOs requires careful verification of phase noise, output power, and control voltage specifications.
