EUROQUARTZ at ELECTRONICA 2012 Exhibition
Euroquartz is promoting its
XOR range of high stability
clock oscillators and its latest
miniature SMD crystal in the
smallest package yet at the forthcoming
Electronica 2012 exhibition,
13th to 16th November,
Munich, Germany. The new
XOR series offers customers a
miniature SMD clock oscillator
with stabilities from ±7ppm over
-10 to +70 °C. Supply voltage
choice is 3.3, 2.5 or 1.8 V and
there are three SMD package
sizes: 7x5 mm, 5x3.2 mm and
3.2x2.5 mm. In addition, XOR
series oscillators have excellent
phase noise performance of –145
dBc/Hz at 100 kHz offset and
exhibit low jitter (300 fs typical).
Frequency range extends
from 1 to 56 MHz.
By using the XOR series, design
engineers can make significant
cost savings as this component
is a clock oscillator and not an
expensive temperature compensated
oscillator.
Also new at Electronica will
be Euroquartz‘s latest miniature
SMD crystal, the X21
series. Housed in the smallest
package size of 2.05 x 1.65 mm
with height of just 0.6 mm, this
device provides an ideal solution
in restricted space applications
requiring very low mass.
The new X21 crystal is hermetically
sealed in a metal can over a
ceramic base. High resistance to
shock and vibration and an extremely
low ageing characteristic
