High frequency oscialltor

[booblik]

Hello,

For one of my projects, I need a high frequency oscillator, in the range of 900MHz. Do such oscillators exist in nature? If not, how can such a high frequency clock be achieved?

Also, is it possible to use the clock of a CPU? Anyway to output the high frequency clock and use it externally?

Thanks,

HI,
In the nature you can find much higher frequencies...
Ask only an Astro physician or radio astronomes ..._ Both are working up to 10th of GHz (and beyond).
But more practicables_for us: google pls simple for HF XTAL or SAW oscillators...
The best are i.e. in an SMD package from 7x4 mm & up to 550MHz, but I know that older profesional XTLA Osci vendors (as Vectron,...) have had products upto & over GHz.
In all cases, they are expensive as pharmacy:-(
Only question is quality of your signal; as stability, spectral cleanles, jitter, amplitude...
