YIG-tunedThe 2 to 20 GHz YIG-tuned oscillator actually con-

Oscillator tains two oscillators—one covering the frequency range of 2 to 8.4 GHz and one covering the fre- quency range of 8.4 to 20 GHz. Both oscillators use a common internal amplifier.

The YIG-tuned oscillator generates RF output sig- nals that have low broadband noise and low spuri- ous content. It is driven by the Main tuning coil current and bias voltages from the A13 YIG Driver PCB and the FM tuning coil current from the A11 FM PCB. During CW mode, the main tuning coil current tunes the oscillator to within a few mega- hertz of the final output frequency. The phase-lock circuitry of the YIG loop then fine adjusts the oscil- lator’s FM tuning coil current to make the output frequency exact. Frequency modulation of the RF output is also accomplished by summing the modu- lating signal into the oscillator’s FM tuning coil con- trol path.
