TentLabs VCXO
Jitter at the digital to analogue conversion affects the amplitude of the regenerated signal. Timing errors therefore yield distortion with respect to the original analogue waveshape.
Purpose
This VCXO is the heart of the well known XO-DAC clock upgrades and available as a separate module to design or upgrade your own PLL circuits.Technology
VCXO is a canned module, and contains a dedicated, tunable oscillator. It needs a clean 5V-power supply, and puts out a neat, low jitter clock signal. Its' control input slight affects the frequency by +/-100ppm when controlled between 0.5V and 4.5V.Application
This part requires experience and design skills and is therefor made available for the experienced DIY as well as OEM customers. It is also very well suitable to upgrade existing VCXO's.We include an additional RF choke ("bead"). This will prevent radio interference, and should be used in combination with a decoupling capacitor closely positioned to the XO module.
Using the supplied DIL14 socket as well will allow you to solder the circuit together without soldering in the VCXO itself. Before doing so, check the output voltage between pins 7 and 14 at the socket, better to be safe than sorry......
Specifications
Electrical• Pin 14: Supply input: 5 Vdc (max 5,5V), consumption 15mA to 30mA typical (depends on output load)
