Hello Raj,
I integrated a Symmetricom model X72 Rb into a Down East Microwave
(DEMI) chassis
and it does experience microphonics. This was for a friends 10 GHz
transceiver used for portable work.
So getting rid of the microphonics is important.
Somehow I need to mechanically isolate the Rb from the chassis and still
have a heat sink.
