ABRACON AST3TQ Evaluation Boards

ABRACON AST3TQ Evaluation Boards are designed to facilitate the electrical performance testing of the AST3TQ series of TCXO's and VCTCXO's. 

Simply solder down the AST3TQ device on the provided land pattern and connect +3.3V to the SMA connector marked as "Vdd" then monitor the RF Output at the SMA marked as "Out". 

For the TCXO version, the "VC" port SMA connector should be left floating. For the VCTCXO version of the AST3TQ devices, this port should be connected to a DC Voltage between 0.00V and +3.30V. Please follow the recommended center voltage value specified in the product data sheet for the device under test (DUT), to be on frequency relative to the carrier.
