There are several different technologies for oscillators (~100MHz) such as crystal, MEMS, SAW, etc., and I am looking for a frequency reference for a PLL such as the ADF4002. My application is the detection of electron spin resonance using a fixed RF magnetic field combined with swept DC magnetic field over a period of a few minutes. Since I am detecting resonance and not measuring it, I do not require high absolute frequency accuracy, temperature stability, or long term stability, but low phase noise/jitter is important. Does anybody have any suggestions for an oscillator type or part?
