XO - VCXO

A.R.Electronique has the capability to develop a large choice of XO / VCXO designed with AT cut, quartz crystals or lithium tantalate resonators from internal manufacturing.

The XO - VCXO program covers a frequency range from 4 to 270 MHz (direct frequency), extended to 2 GHz by internal multiplication.

The OBTAR / OBTAR-H families are XO specially characterized by their low phase noise. They integrate high quality resonators combined with optimised oscillator's electronic. They are devoted to high level applications, such as radars, frequency transponders, telemetry, TTNC.

PHASE NOISE EXAMPLE :
200MHz/1G

The VCSI / VCSI-H families are high performance VCXO :
- the low frequency shift versions procure very low phase noise with a frequency variation range sufficient for temperature and ageing frequency drift compensation.
- the medium frequency shift versions offer frequency variation range up to +/-300.10-6 (quartz resonators).

Wider frequency variation ranges, up to 1% p.p. occur in the VCLI family (lithium tantalite resonators).

For all these VCXO's, the control voltage range, the slope as well as the linearity can be defined regarding the application requirements. The phase noise characteristics close to the carrier is directly correlated to their pulling range.

All these products can be designed for specific avionic, military application, where harsh environmental conditions appears (extended temperature range, vibration, shock). Ruggerized resonators, in 4 points mounting, T0-5 enclosures, low g sensitivity down to 5.10-10/g, are used for these applications.
