TO39-3 Case
Ideal for European 433.92 MHz Transmitters
Low Series Resistance
Quartz Stability
Rugged, Hermetic, Low-Profile TO39 Case
The RO3023 is a true one-port, surface-acoustic-wave (SAW) resonator in a low-profile TO39 case. It
provides reliable, fundamental-mode, quartz frequency stabilization of fixed-frequency transmitters operating
at 433.92 MHz. The RO3023 is designed specifically for remote-control and wireless security devices
operating in Europe under ETSI I-ETS 300 220 and in Germany under FTZ 17 TR 2100.

Notes:
1.
Frequency aging is the change in fC with time and is specified at +65°C or
less. Aging may exceed the specification for prolonged temperatures
above +65°C. Typically, aging is greatest the first year after manufacture,
decreasing in subsequent years.
2.
The center frequency, fC, is measured at the minimum insertion loss point,
ILMIN, with the resonator in the 50 Ω test system (VSWR ≤ 1.2:1). The
shunt inductance, LTEST, is tuned for parallel resonance with CO at fC.
3.
One or more of the following United States patents apply: 4,454,488 and
4,616,197.
4.
Typically, equipment utilizing this device requires emissions testing and
government approval, which is the responsibility of the equipment
manufacturer.
5.
Unless noted otherwise, case temperature TC = +25°C±2°C.
6.
The design, manufacturing process, and specifications of this device are
subject to change without notice.
7.
Derived mathematically from one or more of the following directly
measured parameters: fC, IL, 3 dB bandwidth, fC versus TC, and CO.
8.
Turnover temperature, TO, is the temperature of maximum (or turnover)
frequency, fO. The nominal frequency at any case temperature, TC, may
be calculated from: f = fO [1 - FTC (TO -TC)
2]. Typically, oscillator T
O is
20°C less than the specified resonator TO.
9.
This equivalent RLC model approximates resonator performance near the
resonant frequency and is provided for reference only. The capacitance
CO is the static (nonmotional) capacitance between Pin1 and Pin 2
measured at low frequency (10 MHz) with a capacitance meter. The
measurement includes case parasitic capacitance with a floating case.
For usual grounded case applications (with grund connected to either Pin
1 or Pin 2 and to the case), add approximately 0.25 pF to CO.
