Procurement Notes
Verify the specific ordering suffix against the official Crystek datasheet to ensure correct frequency and voltage specifications. Confirm package dimensions and thermal requirements match the target PCB layout. Check RoHS compliance status if required by project standards. Ensure supply chain sources provide genuine manufacturer documentation.
Selection Notes
Select this component when a wideband VCO covering approximately 231 MHz is required at microwave frequencies. Consider the 0.1 V to 16 V control voltage range for compatibility with existing bias networks. Evaluate the QFN-16 footprint constraints against available board space. Assess thermal management needs given the -40°C to +85°C operational range.
Part Context
This part belongs to Crystek's CVCO55 series of voltage-controlled oscillators. The series focuses on quartz-based resonator technology for stable frequency generation. Crystek offers various models within this family, differentiated by frequency ranges and package types. This specific model targets applications requiring high-frequency stability in a surface-mount form factor.
Replacement Considerations
Consult the official Crystek substitution guide for verified alternatives. Cross-reference pinout compatibility and electrical parameters before swapping. Generic replacements may not match the specific tuning curve or harmonic performance.
