PLO-2000 series Phase Locked Dielectric
Resonator Oscillator (PLDRO) utilizes state of the art MIC and SMT to provide
crystal stability at microwave frequencies up to 40 GHz. The low profile and
rugged construction provide excellent durability against harsh environmental
conditions.
PLO-2000 series oscillator is designed using GaAs
FET or BJT amplifier with series feedback at source and Dielectric Resonator at
the gate. High gain, low-noise GaAs FETs/BJTs are biased positively or
negatively at the gate to ensure minimum phase-noise. The device is carefully
matched for maximum power, minimum phase-noise and Voltage standing-Ratio
(VSWR). The oscillator is matched for maximum temperature stability and optimum
negative resistance.
PLO-2000 series oscillator is buffered by
cascaded low-noise driver and power amplifiers for minimum load pulling, maximum
isolation and power. GaAs FET/BJT devices are directly attached to gold plated
Kovar carriers to minimize shear effect and maximize heat sinking. Kovar
carriers are soldered to the chassis to provide an efficient thermal junction
and a stable structure for reduction of microphonics. To ensure oscillator
stability over the full temperature range, the tuning elements are precisely
designed and positioned to compensate for temperature drift by a factor of
three.
PLO-2000 series proprietary Phase lock loop circuitry
is a surface mountprinted circuit board. The reference frequency is
multiplied and sampled to output frequency. Produced error voltage due to
frequency drift is sensed by a Wein-Bridge Oscillator to provide the necessary
sweep voltage to an ultra Hi-Q tuning varactor diode for the purpose of
compensation and phase locking. The unique construction of phase lock loop
sub-assembly provides excellent temperature stability and minimum solder joints
for maximum reliability.
PLO-2000 series is internally voltage
regulated to avoid reverse bias, frequency pushing, bias modulation and voltage
transients. A phase lock indicator alarm of open collector type is provided as a
feature. The PLO-2000 series are externally reference locked and factory tuned
to specified frequency. Mechanical frequency adjustment is provided for optimum
phase voltage setting.
