The LNFR-100 is an ultra-low noise frequency reference.  The LNFR-100 contains 5 MHz and 100 MHz ultra-low noise ovenized oscillators. The output at 10 MHz  is obtained by  multiplying the signal from the 5 MHz oscillator. The 100 MHz oscillator is phase locked to the 5 MHz oscillator to provide a lower phase noise signal inside the bandwidth of the phase-locked loop. The device can be used as a low noise source in  phase  noise  measurement  systems. Other applications  include  high  stability  frequency synthesizers, reference  frequency  generation and frequency synthesis chains for atomic standards.  The LNFR-100 can  be phase  locked  via a  +/- 5 VDC tuning signal or with a 5 MHz 1 VRMS signal.  This synthesizer is offered in a stand-alone rack-mount package. For frequency synthesis chain applications the synthesizer is available in modular form.
