Covering 3.55 to 3.9 GHz, the VCO's phase noise performance is excellent over temperature, shock, vibration and process due to the oscillator's monolithic structure. Power output is 4.7 dBm typical from a single supply of 3V @ 42 mA. The voltage controlled oscillator is packaged in a low cost leadless QFN 4 x 4 mm surface mount package.
