Resonator
The RO2173A 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 980.0 MHz.
This SAW is designed specifically for remote-control and data-link transmitters operating in the USA under
FCC Part 15 regulations.

Notes:
1.
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, decreasing in subse-
quent years.
The center frequency, f
C
, is measured at the minimum insertion loss point,
IL
MIN
, with the resonator in the 50
Ω
test system (VSWR
≤
1.2:1). The shunt
inductance, L
TEST
, is tuned for parallel resonance with C
O
at f
C
. Typically, f
OS-
CILLATOR
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 govern-
ment approval, which is the responsibility of the equipment manufacturer.

This equivalent RLC model approximates resonator performance near the reso-
nant 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 para-
sitic capacitance with "NC” pads unconnected. Case parasitic capacitance is
approximately 0.05 pF. Transducer parallel capacitance can by calculated as:
