Oscillators: CB3-3I-6M0000 Application Field and Working Principle
The CB3-3I-6M0000 oscillator is a high-performance and high-stability oscillator that allows users to adjust the instant output frequency within a wide range. The device utilizes an analog voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO) design topology to produce ultra-high frequency stability and accuracy.
It is a popular device used in many applications including RF transmitters and receivers, instrumentation systems, clocks and watches, navigation systems, test equipment, wireless communications systems, and many other fields.
In general, the CB3-3I-6M0000 oscillator works by converting an analog input voltage, typically present in the form of a step voltage signal, into an output frequency based on a gain coefficient. The oscillator circuit reduces the input voltage level to a minimum of 200mV. This voltage is converted to a corresponding output frequency based on the gain coefficient.
The gain coefficient is determined by the oscillator\'s gain-bandwidth product, which is determined by the frequency, the resistor value, and the resistor voltage. The resistor value is related to the output voltage level, while the resistor voltage is related to the input voltage level.
The oscillator circuit also includes a voltage-controlled lag network (VCLN) that provides additional frequency control. The VCLN is driven by the analog input voltage, and by the oscillator output voltage. The VCLN, when activated, enables the oscillator to produce a frequency that is more precise and accurate than the output frequency without the VCLN.
The CB3-3I-6M0000 oscillator can operate in a wide range of temperatures. The minimum operating temperature for the device is −25 °C, with an operating frequency range of −20 °C to +85 °C. The oscillator is designed to withstand extreme environmental conditions, such as those present in aerospace and military applications.
The device is extremely reliable and is manufactured to a high standard. The performance is consistent and is highly resistant to temperature and vibration changes. The CB3-3I-6M0000 oscillator is also very cost effective, making it an attractive option for a range of applications.
In summary, the CB3-3I-6M0000 oscillator is highly reliable, accurate, and cost effective oscillator used in a wide range of applications. The device uses an analog voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO) design topology to provide ultra-high frequency stability and accuracy, and the VCLN provides additional frequency control and precision.
