About this file

This Requirements and Specifications document details NIST's procurement of two low-noise 10.24 GHz reference oscillators for the Phase Noise Metrology Group. The oscillators must meet precise technical specifications, including a frequency of 10.24 GHz, ±0.1ppm accuracy, phase locking to a 10 MHz external reference, and extremely low phase noise performance across multiple frequency ranges (e.g., -170 dBc/Hz or better at 1 MHz). Additional requirements include +10 dBm output power, +12V DC power consumption under 15W, a 10 MHz reference input, and compact dimensions of 148mm x 102mm x 76mm.

The procurement document specifies a delivery timeline of 10-12 weeks after receipt of order (ARO), with government acceptance expected to take 14 days. The oscillators are critical for NIST's development and characterization of cavity-stabilized oscillators and will be used for low-noise frequency synthesis in phase noise metrology. No additional training, installation, or special site considerations are required, and the base manufacturer's warranty is acceptable. The solicitation number is NB688000-25-02283 and is issued by the Department of Commerce's National Institute of Standards and Technology.

TITLE: Low-noise 10.24 GHz Reference Oscillator Requesting Lab/Division/Group: Physical Measurements Lab/Time and Frequency Division/Phase Noise Metrology Group

NB688000-25-02283

General Statement of Need The Phase Noise Metrology Group at NIST requires two (2) 10.24 GHz reference oscillators for precision phase noise measurement of ultra-low noise oscillators using cross-correlation technique. Without these reference oscillators, the development and characterization of our cavity-stabilized oscillator will be significantly more challenging. Additionally, these reference oscillators will be a useful tool for low-noise frequency synthesis for phase noise metrology.
