output frequency with an input voltage (VCON), us-
ing a low cost crystal.
This makes the ABV0251 ideal for a wide range of
applications from 20MHz to 52MHz (including
27MHz, 35.328MHz, etc.).

Note:
Crystal Loading rating: 9.5pF is the loading the crystal sees from the VCXO chip at VCON = 1.65V. It is assumed that the crystal will be at nomi-
nal frequency at this load. If the crystal requires more load to be at nominal frequency, the additional load must be added externally.
This however may reduce the pull range
