Single or Dual Channel Ultra Low Noise Synthesizer

Product Details

The SLC is a very affordable single or dual clock 7 GHz synthesizer that exhibits outstanding phase noise and jitter performance in a very small package.

With -170 dBc/Hz phase noise floor at 10 MHz, the SLC is the lowest phase noise compact clock synthesizer of the industry that can help you challenge tomorrow’s requirements for high speed, high-bandwidth Software Defined Radio applications (SDR) and low phase noise PLL and DDS synthesis.

Its high power output is ideal to drive mixers’ LO inputs or high-speed digital clocks. Its very low jitter profile makes ADC and DAC testing more accurate. This source is often cleaner than a crystal oscillator and can offer a high SNR, up to 135 dB.

USB control helps you seamlessly integrate this tool in your test project or clock distribution architecture. Both synthesizers can be controlled completely independently and do not share any
common reference frequencies. However, when coherent signals are required, they can be locked to each other with the help of their 10 MHz reference signals.

Optional ultra-low phase noise OCVCXO allows the synthesizers to reach their best specification and if this is not enough, the external 10 MHz reference input will extends its long term frequency stability (Allan variance) to that of atomic clocks.
