I've an answer from Abracon. I had overlooked these plots: http://www.abracon.com/Precisiontiming/AOCJY%20Typ%20Phase%20Noise%20Plots.pdf

The answer is that we can expect for the 40MHz unit a phase noise performance half way between the 10MHz and 100MHz units performance. That is, compared with the 10MHz unit, roughly a 20dB increase at 10Hz, a more or less 12dB increase at 100Hz, 6dB at 1000Hz, and around 3dB from that point.

Javier

Thanks for your answers, Magnus and John. For now, I will take the 12dB value as a starting point until further confirmation.

That is exactly my thinking, but I was looking for a second opinion :)
We have anyway asked Abracon for pn data on the 40MHz version to be
sure.

Most likely, the PN improvement will be somewhat better than the expected 12 dB close to the carrier, and somewhat worse than expected (if you see any
improvement at all) farther out.

The corner frequency that separates "close in" and "farther out" will be
device-specific,  but it'll probably happen between 100 Hz and 2 kHz.

A more proper analysis would separate the effects of oscillator Q, resonator loop noise and the buffer noise and then scale them accordingly.

Assuming the same Q (which isn't correct) the oscillator core 1/f^2 or 1/f^3 flips up on. The buffer noise then masks on top of that.

Cheers,
Magnus
