FMXP5004

Overview

The FMXP5004 is a phase-locked oscillator manufactured by Fairview Microwave, designed for general-purpose RF applications. It operates at a frequency of 500 MHz and utilizes a 5V supply voltage. The device features an external reference input of 10 MHz to ensure precise frequency stability. Key performance specifications include a phase noise level of -105 dBc/Hz. The component is housed in a compact 28-SMD surface-mount package, facilitating integration into space-constrained circuit designs.

Feature Summary

• Generates a stable 500 MHz output signal using phase-locked loop technology
• Accepts a 10 MHz external reference input for enhanced frequency accuracy
• Delivers low phase noise performance suitable for sensitive RF systems
• Utilizes a 28-SMD surface-mount package for automated assembly compatibility

Applications

• General-purpose RF signal generation
• Test and measurement equipment local oscillators
• Communication system frequency references

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific datasheet version and electrical characteristics directly with Fairview Microwave or authorized distributors before procurement. Confirm that the 28-SMD package dimensions align with your PCB footprint requirements. Ensure the 5V supply voltage and 10 MHz external reference capabilities match your system design constraints. Check for any active status changes or obsolescence notices from the manufacturer prior to finalizing orders.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a stable 500 MHz source is required with low phase noise characteristics. The external 10 MHz reference input allows synchronization with other system components. Consider the 28-SMD form factor for board space optimization. Verify thermal management needs based on the 5V supply operation. Compare against internal reference oscillators if external synchronization is not mandatory.
