Hi Stephanie, Welcome to the list! We designed a 1GHz crystal LO for PLLs (the ULN-1G) using an off the shelf miniature 500MHz crystal oscillator which is run at 3 rd overtone internally then using a diode doubler and a steep bandpass filter using several Mini Circuits ceramic filters and a

Hello Said, Thanks for the answer. Sounds interresting. Do you have a description of that ? Especially a phase noise plot ? As said, I'm planning to use a VCXO (low cost and low noise) at 100 MHz followed by a MMIC (ERA) and a 500 MHz 3-cells helical filter from Temwell. Then a doubler

Hi Stephanie, I have a similar issue, I can never tell if my messages post or not, some I get back instantly others never show up in my inbox. I think the mail server was just updated.. To answer your questions: 1) attached is the PN plot of the 1.0GHz version. 2) Here is a datasheet

Hi Stephane, our customer just needed +/-50KHz free-running over all conditions including aging, so stability was not of major concern, and the unit easily performs significantly better than that. We did make a VCO version for PLL disciplining so you can lock it to a GPSDO or in a
