IQD, part of the Würth Elektronik eiSos Group, is excited to announce the release of new miniature OCXO oscillators in their range of enhanced performance oscillators and extended temperature range of -40 to 95 °C: IQOV-116.
This extended operating temperature range of OCXOs offers high stability in an extremely small 7.5 x 5.5 mm surface mount package. It is the smallest SMD OCXO in the IQD range and brings OCXO performance down to the size of standard 7x5mm clock oscillators.
The IQOV-116 series has a HCMOS output and boasts a range of features including high stability of ±20 ppb over a wide temperature range of -40 to 95 °C, low phase noise (-150 dBc/Hz typ @ 1 KHz), 3.3 V supply voltage and low power consumption at 230 mA steady state.
It comes in three standard frequencies: 10.0 MHz, 19.2 MHz and 20.0 MHz, with other frequencies available upon request.
This small device is ideal for a range of applications, including wireless communication, small cells and further communication infrastructure, frequency reference and measurement systems.
The IQOV-116 series can be supplied packaged on tape & reel which is ideal for assembly using standard ‘pick-n-place’ equipment.
An OCXO offers frequency stabilities much tighter than those seen in standard clock oscillators and even from TCXOs. The frequency drift of the quartz crystal, due to temperature shift, is reduced to a minimum by heating the crystal in an oven and holding the temperature of the quartz at a fixed point.
