Description

This new PLDRO design incorporates many highly desirable features in a rugged low cost unit. This unit can be configured to operate with a reference frequency from one of the following sources: (1) external input frequency in the 50 – 120 MHz range (2) internal VCXO, TCXO or OCXO (3) or a dual loop loop model that allows 10 MHz operation. Another unique feature of this unit is its +5VDC operation (with low power consumption). This highly reliable unit is thoroughly burned in and tested.
