Broad RF Timing Z-Communications offers a broad range of surface mount VCO modules and PLL frequency synthesizers spanning 40 MHz to 15 GHz, with more than 1,000 products. This enables OEMs in microwave and RF systems to source timing and frequency synthesis components from a single supplier, simplifying BOMs and enabling cross-sell of VCOs, PLLs, and OCXOs for compact, high-performance designs.

OCXO Launch The May 2026 launch of the REF100ECA-O 100 MHz OCXO adds ultra-low phase noise and tight frequency stability as a ready-made lab and field reference. Sales opportunities include instrumentation vendors, calibration labs, and embedded system integrators needing reliable, compact frequency references in demanding environments.

Validated Partnerships A 2023 collaboration with Anritsu to validate Z-Communications’ Smart PLL Frequency Synthesizer using the Field Master Pro MS2090A enhances credibility among test and measurement customers. This can be leveraged to pursue test equipment integrators, OEMs building RF test benches, and distributors serving aerospace and defense.

X-band RoHS RoHS-compliant fixed-frequency PLLs like SFS9250C-LF for X-band address radar, satellite, and secure communications applications with regulatory compliance. Opportunities exist with defense contractors, government labs, and aerospace OEMs needing reliable X-band sources with RoHS compatibility.

OEM Collaboration With a focused team capable of delivering custom VCOs and PLLs to meet narrow-band to octave tuning specifications, Z-Communications can partner with contract manufacturers and system integrators to accelerate time-to-market for microwave modules, enabling rapid adoption of reference oscillators, frequency synthesizers, and timing solutions.
