PE19XC7000

Overview

The PE19XC7000 is a general-purpose RF oscillator module manufactured by Pasternack. It operates at a frequency of 500 MHz and utilizes SMA connectors for interface connectivity. The device functions as a phase-locked oscillator, providing an output power range of 5 to 9 dBm and accepting a reference power input between 4 and 10 dBm. This component is categorized under RF ICs and modules, designed for integration into electronic systems requiring stable signal generation.

Feature Summary

• Integrates phase-locked loop technology for frequency stability
• Features SMA connector interfaces for standard RF integration
• Provides adjustable output power within the specified operational range

Applications

• General purpose RF signal generation
• Wireless communication system prototypes
• Test and measurement equipment signal sources

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific datasheet version for the PE19XC7000 to confirm exact electrical tolerances and pinout configurations before integration. Ensure that the host circuitry supports the required reference power levels of 4 to 10 dBm and can accommodate the 500 MHz operating frequency without interference. Confirm mechanical compatibility with SMA connector standards.

Selection Notes

Select the PE19XC7000 when a fixed 500 MHz phase-locked oscillator is required with SMA connectivity. Consider the output power range of 5 to 9 dBm against load requirements. Evaluate the reference power input specifications to ensure compatibility with existing drive circuits. Compare against other Pasternack oscillator modules if variable frequency or different connector types are needed.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Pasternack RF ICs and Modules category, specifically within their line of oscillators. It is distinct from their cable assemblies and attenuators, serving as an active signal source rather than a passive interconnect or loss element. The module format suggests surface mount or board-level integration capabilities typical for modern RF designs.
