The RO2144E is a true one-port, surface-acoustic-wave (SAW) resonator in a surface-mount ceramic case.
It provides reliable, fundamental-mode stabilization of fixed-frequency transmitters operating at 916.5 MHz.
This SAW is designed specifically for remote-control and data-link transmitters operating in the USA under
FCC Part 15 regulations.

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 great-
est the first year after manufacture, decreasing in subsequent years.
The center frequency, f
C
, is measured at the minimum insertion loss point, IL
MIN
, with the res-
onator in the 50
test system (VSWR
≤
1.2:1). The shunt inductance, L
TEST
, is tuned for par-
allel 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 4,616,197.
Typically, equipment utilizing this device requires emissions testing and government
approval, which is the responsibility of the equipment manufacturer.
Unless noted otherwise, case temperature T
C
= +25°C±2°C.
The design, manufacturing process, and specifications of this device are subject to change
without notice.

This equivalent RLC model approximates resonator performance near the resonant fre-
quency 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 capaci-
tance meter. The measurement includes parasitic capacitance with "NC” pads unconnected.
Case parasitic capacitance is approximately 0.05 pF. Transducer parallel capacitance can by
calculated as: C
