The RO2101C is a true one-port, surface-acoustic-wave (SAW) resonator in a surface-mount, ceramic case.
It provides reliable, fundamental-mode, quartz frequency stabilization of fixed-frequency transmitters operat-
ing at 433.92 MHz. This SAW is designed specifically for remote-control and wireless security transmitters op-
erating in Europe under ETSI I-ETS 300 220 and in Germany under FTZ 17 TR 2100.

Notes:
1.
Frequency aging is the change in f
C
with time and is specified at +65C or less.
Aging may exceed the specification for prolonged temperatures above +65C.
Typically, aging is greatest the first year after manufacture, decreasing in subse-
quent years.
2.
The center frequency, f
C
, is measured at the minimum insertion loss point,
IL
MIN
, with the resonator in the 50
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
.
3.
One or more of the following United States patents apply: 4,454,488 and
4,616,197.
4.
Typically, equipment utilizing this device requires emissions testing and govern-
ment approval, which is the responsibility of the equipment manufacturer.
5.
Unless noted otherwise, case temperature T
C
= +25C2C.
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: f
C
, IL, 3 dB bandwidth, f
C
versus T
C
, and C
O
.
8.
Turnover temperature, T
O
, is the temperature of maximum (or turnover) fre-
quency, f
O
. The nominal frequency at any case temperature, T
C
, may be calcu-
lated from: f = f
O
[1 - FTC (T
O
-T

)

]. Typically
oscillator T
O
is approximately
equal to the specified
resonator T
O
.
9.
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:
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 indi-
cates 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.
