White Paper Overview
Oscillators are critical in the signal chain in order to modulate carriers to a high frequency for transport from one antenna to another. In this white paper, we’ll look into voltage-controlled oscillators (VCO), which, due to their prevalence, robust test equipment is needed to effectively characterize these components. This white paper discusses the importance of VCOs, the impact of phase, and how to successfully test these devices from the L band all the way up to the D band for advanced 6G applications, including solutions to simplifying the verification of VCOs in the most demanding applications.
