The Ultra-Low Noise oscillators provide the lowest phase noise floor available at frequencies from 4 to 500 MHz. Packaged in small 1.75 x 2.94 x 1" cans, the "ULN" series is available for PCB and panel mounting. Measurements at NIST in Boulder, Colorado confirm phase noise performance to -180 dBc at 20 kHz for selected 5 and 100 MHz oscillators. Ultra-Low Noise Plus oscillators include multipliers extending the frequency range to 500 MHz. Phase noise is degraded typically 2 dB more than the theoretical 20 log N, where N is the multiplication factor.
