For 18 years now, PETERMANN-TECHNIK from Landsberg am Lech has been serving the market with high-quality and innovative products in combination with a very extensive technical service catalogue and a price and logistics system adapted to the supply chain. This applies to the entire PETERMANN-TECHNIK product range. Quartz crystals and oscillators require a great deal of specialised knowledge, so that PETERMANN-TECHNIK has been able to make a good name for itself as a specialist distributor in the niche market of "frequency-generating components".
Based on the innovative "Silicon Oscillator Technology", PETERMANN-TECHNIK offers an express service that allows sample oscillators or small quantities to be dispatched on the same day if they are ordered from PETERMANN-TECHNIK by 2 p.m. by telephone or via the Internet.
Product configurators speed up component selection
The entire PETERMANN-TECHNIK website is completely interactive with the various product configurators for quartz crystals, quartz oscillators, silicon oscillators and ceramic resonators and is very quick and easy to use. Interested parties can communicate directly with PETERMANN-TECHNIK via the corresponding e-mail contact forms.
Drop-in replacements save costs
PETERMANN-TECHNIK's silicon oscillators are one hundred per cent direct drop-in replacements of quartz and MEMS oscillators, which can be assembled on the same layouts. The user saves costs and makes his application significantly more fail-safe thanks to the thirty-fold increase in longevity, shock and vibration resistance. Automotive oscillators in accordance with AEC-Q100 are of course also available. Thanks to the express service, PETERMANN-TECHNIK can not only serve its customers immediately, but also further expand its position as a specialised partner for frequency-determining components and offer its customers an extremely short time-to-market and a reduction in development, qualification, component, procurement and infrastructure costs.
Circuit trick shortens development time
With all low-power spread spectrum oscillators from the silicon oscillator product range, the spread can be switched off at pin 1. If you do not yet know during the design whether a spread is required, you can use the spread selection pin to choose between a predefined spread and the spread-off function with the output signals LVCMOS, LVTTL, LVPECL, HCSL, LVDS and CML. This function shortens development times and can save component qualification and procurement costs, as can be seen from the example of differential and differential spread spectrum oscillators. If a differential PECL 125 MHz oscillator is purchased as a differential spread spectrum version, for example, the spread can be switched off via pin 1 in applications in which no spread is required. This means that only one component is required to fulfil a wide range of requirements.
The product range of Silicon Oscillators also includes VCXOs and VCTCXOs up to 800 MHz as well as very favourable stratum 3 oscillators. Depending on the component, the "Silicon Oscillators" product range covers the frequency range from 1 Hz to 800 MHz and the temperature range from -55 to +125 °C.
Comprehensive range of quartz oscillators
In addition to the silicon oscillator product range, PETERMANN-TECHNIK also offers crystal oscillators such as clock oscillators(SPXO) and low-power oscillators(LPXO), temperature-compensated(TCXO) and voltage-controlled(VCXO) crystal oscillators, VCTCXOs, differential, Stratum3 and spread-spectrum crystal oscillators through to OCXOs. Depending on the version, miniaturised solutions are available from 1.6 mm x 1.2 mm with supply voltages from 1.8 VDC in the temperature range from -55 to +125 °C. The PETERMANN-TECHNIK specialists recommend the use of the innovative silicon oscillator series due to its significantly better price, performance and longevity.
In addition to a wide variety of oscillators, PETERMANN-TECHNIK has also built up a good reputation for quartz crystals and ceramic resonators as well as RTCs. Focus markets for these products include wireless, industrial, medical, embedded, automotive and consumer. Mini SMD crystals are available from 1.6 mm x 1.2 mm in the temperature range from -55 to +125 °C. In addition to the comprehensive range of quartz products, PETERMANN-TECHNIK also offers development and large-scale production support, such as circuit analyses and much more.
Solution-orientated selection
The quartz crystals can also be selected using the product configurator on the PETERMANN-TECHNIK website for simple and very fast product identification and can be immediately requested or samples ordered using the prepared e-mail contact form.
In addition, prospective customers can access the 32,768 kHz crystals and 32,768 kHz ultra-low-power oscillators directly from the "Home" page under the product focus "32,768 kHz solutions" at the click of a mouse. This allows you to find the right 32,768 kHz product or alternative solutions very quickly.
Logistics and design support
Petermann Technik offers customised logistics and supply chain services and other services that support customers in the use of their components in production. If required, specialised in-house application engineering is available to customers for comprehensive circuit analysis. The customer receives everything from a single source, from a very comprehensive range of services to top-quality products at competitive prices.
New in the programme: Silicon Oscillators
Under the name Silicon Oscillators, PETERMANN-TECHNIK offers silicon oscillators which, compared to conventional quartz oscillators, have significantly better technical data and are available in SMD packages at favourable prices. In addition, they can directly replace quartz and MEMS oscillators without redesigning the circuit board and enable innovative battery-powered applications thanks to their low power consumption.
The silicon oscillator series includes ultra-low-power oscillators (ULPO), ultra-low-power performance low-power high-precision oscillators (ULPPO), high-temperature low-power oscillators (HTLPO), differential XOs (DLPO), VCXOs and VCTCXOs up to 800 MHz, stratum-3 oscillators and spread-spectrum oscillators.
Possible applications include consumer products, telecoms, GPON, EPON, 1G/10G Ethernet, SONET and PCI Express applications, networking, storage, smartphones, tablets, action video cameras, medical solutions, IoT, smart metering, smart home products, embedded computing, industrial (also for high ambient temperatures), wireless, automotive and solutions that use hibernation technology such as GPS, Bluetooth Low Energy, wearables, etc. In other words, all solutions that require very inexpensive miniaturised high performance clocks.
