Description
Functional Diagram
The Endwave EWV0703YF is a high performance InGaP/GaAs HBT
MMIC voltage controlled oscillator which provides a set of dual
outputs ideal for applications which require 3.55 to 4.0 or 7.1 to 8.0
GHz outputs. The device boasts state of the art phase noise at
better than -116 dBc/Hz at a 100 kHz offset. This device has
integrated ESD protection bias circuitry and can be used for a wide
range of applications from defense electronics to commercial
communication systems. All parts are 100% DC and RF tested and
visually inspected to IPC-A-610.
