Description
The VTO-1990-SMA and
VTO-2150-SMA provides a
fundamental, low jitter source as
a key component for the data
re-timing in the transmitter
subsystem and clock and data
recovery in the receiver of the
40 Gb fiber optic systems.
The oscillator uses an extremely
high performance low noise
Agilent Silicon Bipolar transistor
in conjunction with a
hyperabrupt varactor diode to
provide the tuning capability.
The oscillator output is then
coupled to an Agilent GaAs FET
MMIC amplifier and MMIC
multiplier chain to double the
frequency. Finally the output is
filtered through a bandpass filter
prior to outputting the signal at
19.906 or 21.509 GHz.
