    Model CRO5750Z-LF is a RoHS-compliant voltage-controlled oscillator from Z-Communications that operates from 5740 to 5760 MHz with tuning voltages of 0 to 4.5 V. The tuning sensitivity is 15 MHz/V. The VCO achieves phase noise of -106 dBc/Hz offset 10 kHz from the carrier with harmonics of -40 dBc. It delivers +4 dBm output power while drawing 70 mA typical current from a +5-VDC supply. It is supplied in the firm's VCO-24H package measuring 0.866 x 0.630 x 0.22 in. and is available in tape-and-reel packaging for automated production applications.
