2.2. TCXO circuit (ML7404)
Please use a TCXO that satisfy the following specification.
Output load:
10k
Ω//10pF
Output level:
0.8Vpp to 1.5Vpp
Frequency accuracy:
below ±10ppm
The ML7404 has integrated bias circuit and the DC bias is applied to the TCXO (#6) pin. A 0.1uF capacitor
should be placed on the TCXO line as following.
In ML7404, #5 pin is N.C. pin, then it should be open.

[1] Frequency tolerance is indicated by the sum of the following 3 items.
A. Initial frequency tolerance
B. Frequency/Temperature characteristics
C. Long-term Frequency stability
It is possible to compensate the item A(Initial frequency tolerance) by adjusting the frequency of transmission /
reception in ML7404. When adjusting the initial frequency tolerance for each set, the frequency tolerance
required for reference clock source is only the sum of B and C.
