The THOR-14000-XA frequency synthesizer from EM Research is designed to operate from 13.6 to 14.0 GHz in 1 MHz steps and features fast switching of ≤400 µSec band-edge to band-edge, and ≤300 µSec channel to channel.  Locked to an external 10 MHz reference, the device exhibits low phase noise (<-86 dBc/Hz @ 10 KHz) and low current draw (+5VDC @ 335 mA). 

The THOR units are capable of maintaining excellent performance over vibration, shock and temperature featuring a rugged, module-mount package (2.50 x 1.1 x 0.4 inches), which can be optionally hermetically-sealed and contains removable SMA connectors for surface-mountability.  The THOR-14000 units also feature low sub-harmonics (-25 dBc), low spurs (<-65 dBc) and a wide operating temperature range (-40°C to +85°C).   

EM Research, Inc. offers the most complete lineup of standard and custom-designed signal control products in the wireless industry.  The company specializes in miniature surface-mount, modular and connectorized phase-locked oscillators and frequency synthesizers from 5 MHz to over 40 GHz.
