General Specification
1. Load Impedance is 50 Ohms.
2. Operating temperature range is typically –40°C…+85°C.
3. The package is non-hermetic. Substrate is glass-reinforced laminate, the cover is
folded nickel-silver.
4. Bypass-capacitors (ceramic) from Vcc to Ground are recommended: 1nF||100pF.
5. Customized specifications may deviate from this General Specification.
6. Phase-noise performance depends on the individual specification. Phase Noise is
strongly dependent on (a) frequency (b) supply voltage and (c) tuning range.
7. The phase noise graph (to right) shows the characteristic of two typical RQS-
VCOs at 0dBm output power, ±1% tuning range and 3.3V / 2.8V supply voltage.
