QuikXO VMQF VCTCXO Series

Mercury United Electronics’ QuikXO VMQF VCTCXO oscillators are built-to-order and they are drop-shipped from Southern California in just days instead of weeks. These voltage-controlled, temperature-compensated crystal oscillators are ideal for applications that require a very accurate ±1.0 ppm frequency stability over an extended temperature range from -40°C to +85°C. The control voltage on Pad 1 is centered at +1.5 V with a control range of ±1.0 V. The high-frequency pull is +8 ppm minimum with a control voltage from +1.5 V to +2.5 V, and the low-frequency pull is -8 ppm minimum with a control voltage from +0.5 V to +1.5 V.

Low current consumption and typical integrated phase jitter from 0.8 pS to 1.6 pS RMS make these oscillators a perfect choice for many circuits. Package sizes include the miniature 3.2 mm x 2.5 mm (VMQF326) with six pads as well as the popular 5.0 mm x 7.0 mm (VMQF574/VMQF576) with four or six pads. The VCTCXO oscillator series operates with a supply voltage of either +2.5 V or +3.3 V, and it is available with a CMOS, LVDS, or LVPECL square wave output logic. The nominal frequency ranges available are from 10.000 MHz to 250.000 MHz with a CMOS square wave output logic and from 10.000 MHz to 1,500.000 MHz (1.5 GHz) with a PECL or LVDS square wave output logic.

When low current consumption is critical to a design, the QuikXO VCTCXO is ideal with a current consumption from 17 mA to 34 mA with a CMOS square wave output logic, 28 mA to 52 mA with a PECL square wave output logic, and 19 mA to 25 mA with an LVDS square wave output logic. These oscillators are 2011/65 EU RoHS Directive compliant.
