Low Noise Master OCXO Oscillator

The Low Noise Master OCXO Oscillator (LNMO) is primarily used in high-precision applications such as GNSS/GPS navigation, Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) systems, Flight Guidance Units (FGU), and Maintenance, Repair, and Overhaul (MRO) systems. Its low-noise performance ensures reliable timing and frequency stability across these critical fields.
