About
The FSN11200816QF is a low-phase-noise, fixed-frequency microwave synthesizer providing a custom-specified output frequency within the 8-16 GHz range. It achieves -103 dBc/Hz phase noise with spurious content below -80 dBc, meeting the stringent LO requirements of Ka-band satellite transceiver front-ends, X-band radar systems, and precision microwave test equipment.
The synthesizer is packaged in an exceptionally compact 25.4×25.4×6.35 mm surface-mount package, enabling integration into space-constrained designs such as CubeSat payloads, compact satellite transceivers, and miniaturized ground terminals. The surface-mount format eliminates the need for coaxial connectors in LO distribution paths, reducing assembly complexity and improving phase noise.
The FSN11200816QF is ordered with a customer-specified fixed output frequency within 8-16 GHz, making it suitable for use as a stable reference oscillator or LO source in satellite communications, radar signal processors, frequency synthesizer chains for Ka-band upconverters, and 5G millimeter-wave base station LO generation.
