The frequency of this oscillator is stabilized by surface-acoustic-wave (SAW) technology. This results in excellent performance from a compact, rugged, oscillator operating at the fundamental frequency of 1090.0 MHz. The highly-reliable HO1079 is designed for use in air traffic control (ATC) radar transponders in commercial aviation. It is a commercial version of the HO1081 oscillator.

• SAW Frequency Stabilization
• Fundamental-Mode Oscillation at 1090.0 MHz
• Ideal for Air Traffic Control Applications
