The API725 Series is a high performance line of SAW oscillators providing superior communication distances for
frequencies of 350 MHz to 4,000 MHz and phase lock loop for heritage applications. The radiation tolerant voltage
controlled SAW oscillators (VCSO) are designed for space, satellite communications and aerospace systems.
The API725 Series is a high performance line of SAW oscillators providing superior performance at operating
frequencies of 350 MHz to 4,000 MHz. The VCSOs deliver low phase noise performance (-109 dBc/Hz at 1 kHz) and
low vibration sensitivity (2 x 10-9 per g). API’s space-qualified VCSOs are standard products that can be modified to
customer requirements for output frequency, frequency range and control voltage sensitivity.
API’s VCSOs meet exceptional radiation tolerance at testing levels with radiation exposure to 200kRad total dosage.
The VCSOs are constructed in hermetically sealed Kovar packages using ruggedized hybrid construction to provide
high-reliability and outstanding performance over a wide temperature range (-55°C to +100°C). This series includes
models which have internal frequency multiplication of 2 or 4 to provide output frequencies in the 700 MHz to 4,000
MHz range.
