SILICON OSCILLATORS - NEXT GENERATION CLOCKING

PETERMANN-TECHNIK's silicon oscillators can be used as direct drop-in replacements for quartz and MEMS oscillators without redesigning the circuit board. The long service life with an MTBF of more than 500 million hours and the high shock and vibration resistance make applications with silicon oscillators significantly more fail-safe. Economical power consumption The ultra-low-power 32.768 kHz XOs and TCXOs are available in 1.5 mm x 0.8 mm and 2.0 mm x 1.6 mm packages, depending on the version. They are characterised by an extremely low current consumption of less than 1 µA and are available with stabilities from ±5 ppm in the temperature range from -40 °C to +85 °C. Developers can reduce the current consumption even further by reducing the amplitude of the output signal and adapt it perfectly to the application. Thanks to their very low power consumption, the ULPOsand ULPPOsavailable in the VDD range from 1.2 to 3.63 VDC are tailored for use in battery-powered applications: The range of applications includes, for example, wearables, GPS, smartphones, tablets, health and wellness monitors, sports video cameras, IoT, smart metering, smart housing, industrial (also for high ambient temperatures), consumer products, automotive and embedded computing. In particular, the ultra low power 32.768 kHz silicon oscillators are also intended for applications that use hibernation technology, such as Bluetooth Low Energy and GPS. The Differential XOs, VCXOs and VCTCXOs in Silicon Oscillator Technology are available with LVCMOS, LVPECL, HCSL, LVDS or CML output signals and have frequency stabilities of ±10 ppm in the temperature range from 0 °C to 70 °C or ±15 ppm from -40 °C to +85 °C with extremely low jitter values of 0.3 ps in the frequency range of up to 800 MHz. The ageing of ±5 ppm after 10 years is below that of a quartz-based TCXO. This makes these oscillators suitable for applications such as networking and computing, server and storage applications, SONET, SATA, SAS, PCI Express, routers, fully buffered DIMM and fibre optic products. The VCXOs are characterised by a very broad frequency spectrum from 1.0 to 625 MHz with pull ranges of up to ±1600 ppm. Frequency stabilities from ±10 ppm to ±50 ppm over -40 to +85 °C can be selected, the long-term ageing is ±5 ppm after 10 years. Oscillator with two selectable frequencies In the frequency range from 2 to 110 MHz, the LPO-2 series can output two frequencies via the frequency selection pin: the main frequency F0 or a divided frequency of this. The multiple use of oscillators with two different frequencies saves considerable development, qualification, component, procurement and infrastructure costs. Ageing of ±1 ppm after the first year is at TCXO level. In the -20 to +70 °C range, the standard stability is ±20 ppm, or ppm in the -40 to +85 °C range. With 0.8 ps jitter, the LPO-2 series has the best value in the industry. Spread spectrum oscillatorsThe low-power high-performance spread spectrum oscillators (LPSSO series) in the standard frequency range of 1 to 220 MHz are characterised by centre spread ranges of ±0.125 to ±2.0 percent and down spread ranges of -0.25 to -4 percent. The VDD range is 1.8 to 3.63 VDC. Depending on the version, output signals of LVCMOS, LVTTL, LVPECL, HCSL, LVDS and CML are available. Spread spectrum oscillators are therefore suitable for applications such as telecommunications, scanners, printers, copiers, interface controllers, graphics cards, PCIs, CPUs, set-top boxes and LC displays. The spread spectrum oscillator versions with switchable spread have a frequency stability of ±25 ppm (-40 to +85 °C) with a very low cycle-to-cycle jitter of 30 ps. The developer can switch on a defined spread and thus significantly reduce development, component, storage and procurement costs. The same oscillator can be used in different customer applications with or without a spread. The product range of silicon oscillators also includes VCXOs, VCTCXOs up to 800 MHz and 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. Sampling and small series within one day With the ingeniously simple express service, PETERMANN-TECHNIK can send samples and small series of ULPOs and ULPPOs with 32.768 kHz, LPOs, UPOs, HPTLPOs, VCXOs, LPSSOs and differential oscillators on the same day the order is placed, provided this order is placed via the website or by telephone by 14:00. 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 very quickly and easily using the corresponding e-mail contact forms.
