High Performance Low Phase Noise TCXO For Unmanned Systems: M616X Series

Source: MtronPTI

The M616X Series of TCXOs and TCVCXOs from MtronPTI are designed to provide low voltage, surface mount solutions for a variety of applications including GPS, military, avionics, test and measurement, WLAN, WiMax base stations, point to point/multi-point radios, medical equipment, frequency synthesis, frequency translation, and more. These oscillators are available in frequencies from 8 to 40 MHz, and selective frequencies up to 52 MHz.

The M616X series’ specially processed crystals enable these devices to achieve consistent long-term stability and minimal frequency shift after reflow, which also enables excellent g-sensitivity. The standard output for these TCXOs is HCMOS compatible or clipped sinewave. They are suited for battery and remote applications where current is as low as 1.5 mA with 3.3 voltage at 13 MHz. This low power consumption provides an advantage over similarly specified ovenized oscillators for power-sensitive applications.

Additional features include:

  • Tight stability performance
    • (+/0.2 ppm) over Industrial Temperatures (-40°C to +85°C)
    • (+/0.10 ppm) over Commercial Temperatures (0°C to 70°C)
  • Available in 10 pad and 14 DIP configurations (Contact factory for 14 DIP)
  • 3.0 V, 3.3 V and 5.0 V versions
  • Low phase noise performance (Graph below)
