Greenray Industries T75 TCXO Offers Low G-Sensitivity And Very Tight Frequency Stability Over Temperature
Available at any frequency between 10 and 52 MHz, the T75 TCXO incorporates a
low-noise ASIC oscillator which can output either a +3.3 V or +5.0 V CMOS
squarewave or a 0.8 Vp-p clipped sine. Typical g-sensitivity of the crystal is 2.5 x 10-9/g but options are available where it can be specified down to < 5 x 10-10/g, worst axis being the 'Z' axis. Applications include WiMAX, GPS, Stratum 3, mobile instrumentation, and smart munitions. Learn more.

| Featured Article | | Characterization Of Gaussian Noise Sources Key applications in high-rate serial data technologies assume that random jitter (RJ) follows a Gaussian distribution and require that receivers be tested under the stress of a calibrated level of Gaussian RJ. However, the most commonly available noise sources have never been rigorously characterized until now. This article demonstrates a complete statistical analysis of industry-standard noise sources and reports on the extent to which the Gaussian assumption is valid...
