Hi,

No.  I have experience with low-noise designs under vibration, however.  What 
is the compelling reason for even considering such a device when a design is 
available that doesn't need it?  Sounds like risk without an upside to me.

any spur larger than -130 dBc will be an issue.  It doesn't take much vibe to 
do that.  And the synthesizer has to operate under 10g RMS.

Only one device is at the end of a long cable, with reduced performance 
expectations.  The others are local and share a common ground.

I am familiar with the various types of capacitors properties and frequencies.
