MEMS low-frequency oscillator solutions consume 65% less space on the board. SiTime’s 1.5mm x 0.8mm (1508) oscillators are a completely integrated solution and do not require external components such as power supply decoupling caps. The 1508 footprint is smaller than the smallest quartz crystal footprint at 1.6mm x 1.2mm. When taking into account load capacitors that are needed for the 32kHz quartz crystal, the total board area or the crystal solution is almost 3 times larger.
