Z-Comm Backhaul Radio VCO Exhibits Superior Phase Noise Performance
 San
Diego, CA, May 13, 2010 -- A new remarkable low noise Voltage Controlled Oscillator from
Z-Communications, Inc. (San Diego, CA) has been specially designed for the backhaul radio market. The
ZRO2460B1LF is a technology breakthrough device featuring amazingly low phase noise with unmatched stability.
This compact yet robust device operates from 2435-2485 MHz within a tuning voltage range of 1-10 Vdc. The
ZRO2460B1LF offers superior SSB spectral purity of -113 dBc/Hz, typically, at 10 kHz from the carrier while
covering the bandwidth with an average tuning gain of 8 MHz/V.
The
ZRO2460B1LF utilizes voltage bias and temperature stabilization to further enhance the VCO's performance.
This rugged oscillator is designed to deliver a typical output power of 6 dBm into a 50W load while drawing only
30 mA, typically, from a 8Vdc supply.
The
ZRO2460B1LF operates over the industrial temperature range of -40 to 85ºC and attenuates the second harmonic
to better than -15dBc. This low cost device is also heightened by its extremely low pushing and pulling
specification.
ZRO2460B1LF pushes less than 0.7 MHz/V within a 5% change of the supply voltage and pulls less than 0.7 MHz
with a 14 dB return loss, any phase.
This
ZRO2460B1LF comes in Z-Communications' industry standard MINI-16-SM surface mount package measuring 0.50 in. x
0.50 in. x 0.22 in. This exceptional VCO is ideal for automated surface mount assembly and reflow; it is
available in tape and reel packaging for production requirements. For further information on the
ZRO2460B1LF or any other VCO product from Z-Communications, please contact an Applications Engineer via e-mail

RF Cafe began life in 1996 as "RF Tools" in an AOL screen name web space totaling
2 MB. Its primary purpose was to provide me with ready access to commonly needed
formulas and reference material while performing my work as an RF system and circuit
design engineer. The World Wide Web (Internet) was largely an unknown entity at
the time and bandwidth was a scarce commodity. Dial-up modems blazed along at 14.4 kbps
while tying up your telephone line, and a nice lady's voice announced "You've Got
Mail" when a new message arrived...
