IQD unveils ultra high stability ocxo

Designed for use in next generation multimode base station platforms, IQD's new IQOV-70 ocxo is said to achieve a frequency stability of ±3ppb over a temperature range of -10 to 70°C.

Operating at a frequency of 10MHz, the new model is built around an SC-cut crystal, which has been designed and manufactured in-house. Output capability can be either HCMOS or LV-TTL, with supply voltage options of 5 or 12V. The device has a phase noise performance of < 155dBc/Hz at an offset of 10kHz. Frequency ageing is limited to ±0.05ppm maximum over a period of one year. The IQOV-70 is housed in an industry standard IEC C008 5-pin Euro package, with a height of just 13mm. Surface mount packages are also available.
