Z-Communications, Inc. announced the release of the FSG24000LX, a high-performance phase locked oscillator designed to deliver a stable 24 GHz signal in a compact and exceptionally durable form factor.

Engineered to meet the rigorous demands of modern RF systems, the FSG24000LX is housed in a rugged, all-metal enclosure measuring 2.66 x 2.88 x 0.35 in. This robust design makes it an ideal solution for both benchtop laboratory testing, demanding in-field deployments and system integration across Doppler radar, satcom and defense sectors.

Key Performance Highlights:

• Superior Signal Integrity: Achieves excellent phase noise performance, featuring -104 dBc/Hz at 10 kHz offset and a spurious suppression of -65 dB
• Reliable Power: Delivers a typical output power of 11.5 dBm while operating from a single 15 VDC supply
• Advanced Control: Includes a Phase Sync (PSYNC) input and a dedicated lock detect output for seamless system integration and real-time status monitoring
• Fast Deployment: Features a rapid power-up time of just 15 msec and operates reliably across a wide temperature range of -40°C to +70°C.

"The FSG series provides RF engineers with the stability and flexibility they need," said a spokesperson for Z-Communications. "When locked to a 100 MHz external reference input, the FSG24000LX is a versatile tool for anyone requiring a highly reliable 24 GHz frequency source."
