The RO2116A is a true one-port, surface-acoustic-wave (SAW) resonator in a surface-mount, ceramic case.
It provides reliable, fundamental-mode, quartz frequency stabilization of local oscillators operating at
303.325 MHz. This SAW is designed for 303.325 MHz superhet receivers with 500 kHz IF (Philips
UAA3201T). Applications inlude remote-control and wireless security receivers operating in the USA under
FCC Part 15, in Japan, in Australia, and in Korea.

Notes:

Frequency aging is the change in f
C
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, decreas-
ing in subsequent years.
The center frequency, f
C
, is measured at the minimum insertion loss point,
IL
MIN
, with the resonator in the 50
test system (VSWR
≤
1.2:1). The shunt
inductance, L
TEST
, is tuned for parallel resonance with C
O
at f
C
. Typically,
f
OSCILLATOR
or f
TRANSMITTER
is approximately equal to the resonator f
C
.
One or more of the following United States patents apply: 4,454,488 and

Typically, equipment utilizing this device requires emissions testing and gov-
ernment approval, which is the responsibility of the equipment manufacturer.
Unless noted otherwise, case temperature T

The design, manufacturing process, and specifications of this device are sub-
ject to change without notice.

Turnover temperature, T

quency, f
O
. The nominal frequency at any case temperature, T

, may be cal-
culated from: f = f

This equivalent RLC model approximates resonator performance near the
resonant frequency and is provided for reference only. The capacitance C
O
is
the static (nonmotional) capacitance between the two terminals measured at
low frequency (10 MHz) with a capacitance meter. The measurement
includes parasitic capacitance with “NC” pads unconnected. Case parasitic
capacitance is approximately 0.05 pF. Transducer parallel capacitance can
be calculated as: C

- 0.05 pF.
