Rugged, Hermetic, Low-Profile TO39 Case
Complies with Directive 2002/95/EC (RoHS)
The RO2053 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 310 MHz. The RO2053 is designed specifically for AM transmitters used in automotive-keyless-entry
applications operating in the USA under FCC Part 15, in Canada under DoC RSS-210, and in Italy.

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 significantly 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. Typically, fOSCILLATOR or fTRANSMITTER is less than the resonator fC.
3.
One or more of the following United States patents apply: 4,454,488 and 4,616,197 and others pending.
4.
Typically, equipment designs utilizing this device require 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 ground connected to either pin 1
or pin 2 and to the case), add approximately 0.25 pF to CO.
