SAW Resonator
The RO3156A is a one-port surface-acoustic-wave (SAW) resonator packaged in a surface-mount ceramic
case. It provides reliable, fundamental-mode quartz frequency stabilization of fixed-frequency transmitters
operating at 868.95 MHz. The RO3156A is designed specifically for SRD transmitters operating in Europe
under ETSI EN 300 220-2.

CAUTION: Electrostatic Sensitive Device. Observe precautions for handling.
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
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 ± 2 °C.

The design, manufacturing process, and specifications of this device are subject
to change without notice.
Derived mathematically from one or more of the following directly measured
parameters: f

, and C
O
.
Turnover temperature, T
O
, is the temperature of maximum (or turnover)
frequency, f

. The nominal frequency at any case temperature, T

, may be
calculated 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 by calculated as:
C
P
≈
C
O
- 0.05 pF.

Electrical Connections
The SAW resonator is bidirectional and may be
installed with either orientation. The two terminals
are interchangeable and unnumbered. The callout
NC indicates no internal connection. The NC pads
assist with mechanical positioning and stability.
External grounding of the NC pads is
recommended to help reduce parasitic
capacitance in the circuit.
