APITech's line of Master Reference Oscillators (MROs) is state-of-the-art designs utilizing vibration hardened, ultra low noise, crystal oscillators intended for severe environments such as heavy ground or vibration prone airborne applications.
These Master Reference Oscillators (MROs) utilize a unique dampening structure, suspending the oscillator in mid-air isolating it from the detrimental effects of microphonics on phase noise performance.
