Description

The Spinnaker Microwave FLO-LFM series Frequency Multiplier generates microwave frequencies on 4 outputs based on multiplying an internal / external reference signal in the VHF range. Typically this unit is used to increase the frequency characteristic of a high performance OXCO between 50MHz and 200MHz with minimal phase noise and spurious degradation. To accomplish this, Spinnaker Microwave utilizes one or several techniques to provide multiplication ratios from X3 to over X100 based on Step Recovery Diodes (SRD's), Non-Linear Transmission Lines (NLTL's), Diode or Tuned Amplifier configurations. A rugged machined housing ensures compliance to most MIL-STD testing/screening procedures.
