Cavity-stabilized Millimeter-wave Oscillators

The CIDO series of cavity-stabilized millimeter-wave oscillators produce fine spectrum resolution and low phase noise with high output power and frequency stability. The models are available in waveguide bands from 26 to 150 GHz. The solid-state, IMPATT-based design combines the extended frequency range and output power of IMPATT technology with the stability and phase noise characteristics associated with cavity-stabilized Gunn sources. The CIDO configuration consists of a waveguide cavity IMPATT oscillator coupled to a high Q, high order mode cylindrical Invar cavity. A low pass EMI filter and current stabilizer are included for trouble-free operation and an isolator is integrated into the output. The models are supplied mounted on a finned heatsink and can maintain their operating frequency within a few megahertz over the 50° to +80°C temperature range.
