Small OCXOs are low-frequency precise reference for wireless and fibre

Raltron is providing communications networks worldwide with its OX7000 Series, the smallest SMD OCXO available on the market. At just 9mm x 7mm, the series provides superior temperature stability in an ultra-small package and is created for all aspects of 5G wireless infrastructure, network interface cards, transmission, and base station application requirements.

The series covers a frequency range from 10,000MHz to 40,000MHz with a power supply voltage of 3.3V at 150mA steady state. Provided in a hermetically sealed package for enhanced reliability, these OCXOs offer a quick warm-up time of three minutes, a low phase noise of -158dBc/Hz at 10kHz offset and HCMOS output levels. With a very performant frequency stability of +/-20ppb -40/85, the series provides high reliability in a compact package for transmission, broadcasting, precision instrumentation, and utility metering infrastructure applications.

“Built to support the rapidly growing demand in bandwidth and 5G infrastructure, the OX7000 Series provides the best possible stability in a 9mm x 7mm x 4mm package. This high stability OCXO is ideal for applications that require low phase noise such as network interface cards,” said Sasha Wolloch, president at Raltron.
