C2260A1-0032 datasheet by Vectron International

C2260A1-0032 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the recommended PCB layout for optimal performance?
  Vectron International recommends a symmetrical layout with the oscillator placed near the center of the PCB, and the output traces should be routed away from the input traces to minimize feedback. A ground plane underneath the oscillator is also recommended to reduce noise and radiation.
• How do I ensure the oscillator is properly terminated?
  The C2260A1-0032 requires a 50Ω load termination to ensure proper operation. A 50Ω resistor should be connected between the output pin and ground to provide the necessary termination.
• What is the maximum operating temperature range for this oscillator?
  The C2260A1-0032 is rated for operation from -40°C to +85°C. However, it's recommended to derate the frequency stability and output amplitude at extreme temperatures.
• Can I use this oscillator in a harsh environment with high vibration or shock?
  The C2260A1-0032 is designed to meet the requirements of MIL-STD-883, Method 2002.3 for vibration and MIL-STD-883, Method 2001.3 for shock. However, it's recommended to consult with Vectron International's application engineers to ensure the oscillator meets the specific requirements of your application.
• How do I adjust the output frequency of the oscillator?
  The C2260A1-0032 has a fixed output frequency, which is set during the manufacturing process. It's not possible to adjust the output frequency in the field. If a different frequency is required, a different part number should be selected.
