E-Band Wide Mechanical Tuning-Bandwidth Gunn Oscillator with Isolator

SOF-1205-MI is an E-Band, wide mechanical tuning bandwidth Gunn oscillator that utilizes a high performance GaAs Gunn diode and proprietary cavity design to deliver +5 dBm typical power with low AM/FM noise and harmonic emissions. The oscillator has a center frequency of 75 GHz and a mechanical tuning range of ±10 GHz. Compared to its multiplier based counterparts, the Gunn oscillator is a lower cost alternative and a cleaner source. In addition, this model features an integrated isolator to achieve a more stable performance. The Gunn oscillator is equipped with a micrometer for quick frequency tuning when used as a bench top unit. Models with a self-locking set screw for frequency tuning are available under a different model number for use in system integration applications. The performance of the oscillator can be further enhanced by adding a Gunn oscillator modulator/regulator and temperature heater.
