Elite X Super-TCXO for edge networks from SiTime

MEMS based timing device maker SiTime launched new Elite X Super-TCXO for edge networks such as data centers, 5G front haul, connected cars and industrial IoT.

Mems-based oscillation devices or less sensitive thermal shock and vibrations compared to quartz-based oscillation devices. Piyush Sevalia, executive vice president of marketing at SiTime says SiTime' Elite X Super-TCXO shines by delivering 2x better stability and 30x higher reliability than quartz.

This new TCXOs perform better in terms of aging, warm-up time, and power consumption compared to legacy timing devices.

With Elite X (±10-20 ppb stability), Emerald (±5 ppb), and Elite (±50-500 ppb), SiTime offers a range of TCXOs and OCXOs that meet various application requirements in communications, networking, automotive, and industrial IoT.

SiT5501 Elite X Super-TCXO Features and Benefits

The SiT5501 Elite X Super-TCXO includes the following features and benefits:

±10 ppb frequency stability
-40°C to +105°C operating temperature. More applications require 105°C operation.
110 mW typical power consumption
Small package, 7.0 mm x 5.0 mm
±0.5 ppb/°C dF/dT (frequency slope), resistant to thermal shock and airflow
±0.5 ppb daily aging
Any frequency from 1 to 60 MHz with up to 6 decimal places of accuracy

Samples of the SiT5501 Elite X Super-TCXO are available now, with volume production in Q3’2022.
