Crystek's ultra-low phase noise LVPECL clock oscillator

 Crystek Corp. has launched the CCPD-575, a new ultra-low phase noise LVPECL oscillator providing a -162 dBc/Hz noise floor.  Compact and powerful, the CCPD-575 has an industry leading phase noise for an LVPECL oscillator – at least 15 dB lower phase noise than most LVPECL oscillators on the market today. Close-in phase noise is also excellent @ -90 dBc/Hz for the 100 MHz variant. This overall ultra-low phase noise translates to a typical phase jitter of 85 fS RMS (12 kHz to 20 MHz).
