MINI ZX95-2600

Coaxial
Voltage Controlled Oscillator
50Ω
ZX95-2600+
1650 to 2600 MHz
The Big Deal:
• Wide Band
• Low Phase Noise
• Robust design and construction
• Rigid unibody construction
CASE STYLE: GB956
Product Overview:
The ZX95-2600+ is a Voltage Controlled Oscillator, designed to operate from 1650 to 2600
MHz for Cable TV application. The ZX95-2600+ built using Mini-Circuits proven unibody
construction (size of 1.20" x .75" x .46") which integrates the RF connectors with the case
body to shield against unwanted signals and noise.
Key Features
Feature
Advantages
Wide Band: from 1650MHz to 2600MHz
The model's wide bandwidth makes it suitible for a wide variaty of
applications, such as: CATV, military, test equipment etc...
Low Phase Noise:
-102dBc/Hz typ at 10kHz offset
Low phase noise improves system EVM (Error Vector Magnitude).
Good Pushing, 1MHz/V typ.
Provides increased immunity against noisy DC lines and improves
output frequency stability vs. variations in supply voltage.
Robust design and construction
Each internal component of the ZX95-2600+ is bonded to the substrate,
providing better immunity to microphonics and reduced phase hit.
