John:

All SMT OCXO's will either have a recommended PCB footprint in the spec sheet
or will refer you to a recommended footprint in another document.

Some don't care about a ground plane under the part, some require it
with no crossing signals, some require an open thermal hole underneath
the oven.  I have seen all three cases.  As usual, it is suggested that you
read the [] manual.

Hello,

I was wondering if I could get some recommendations on surface mount OCXO's
vs. the traditional through hole.

I was also wondering on the board layout - if you found it necessary to
leave a thermal moat so to speak - and what worked best.  Maybe the OCXO
has an internal air barrier that maybe would make this unnecessary - not
sure.

Your input and experience appreciated.

Thanks,
John Westmoreland
