The PLO-D NS is a part of Rakon’s Phase Locked Oscillator (PLO) series and is a based on a Dielectric Resonator Oscillator featuring superior
phase noise performance. This high frequency PLO delivers excellent close-in phase noise and noise floor. It is suitable for LEO satellites
and satellite constellations where high-frequency signals and low phase noise are critical and is ideal for LEO Broadband, GNSS or Earth
Observation.
The small form factor is a key feature of the phase-locked NewSpace PLO-D. This PLO takes an external 100 MHz reference as input, which
delivers a high and low noise frequency signal. This PLO can be customised to have several outputs, a higher output level, or a more stable
internal reference. It is a cost-effective solution with short lead times. Tests and screening flow can be tailored according to customer
requirements to reduce cost and lead time.
