Model CVCO55CC-1370-1400 voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO) from Crystek operates from 1370 to 1400 MHz with a control voltage range of 0.5 to 4.5 V. The VCO features typical phase noise of -114 dBc/Hz offset 10 kHz from the carrier and has excellent linearity. The output power is typically +2 dBm. Engineered and manufactured in the United States, the model CVCO55CC-1370-1400 is packaged in the industry-standard 0.5-in. x 0.5-in. SMD package. It operates with +5 VDC and maximum current of 30 mA. Pulling and pushing are minimized to 1.5 MHz and 0.5 MHz/V, respectively. Second harmonic suppression is typically -25 dBc.
