Additional Details

The EG-2103CA156.2500M-PHRH crystal oscillator generates a clock signal with a frequency of 156.2500 MHz. This precise frequency is crucial for timing and synchronization in various electronic applications. The oscillator operates with a supply voltage of 3.3V, which is a common voltage level in many digital circuits. The output signal is HCMOS (High-speed CMOS), which provides a clean and well-defined signal with fast rise and fall times. HCMOS logic levels are compatible with many digital devices, making the oscillator easy to integrate into existing systems.

One of the key features of this crystal oscillator is its high frequency stability. This refers to the oscillator's ability to maintain a consistent frequency over time and temperature variations. High frequency stability is essential for applications that require precise timing, such as telecommunications and networking equipment. The oscillator also exhibits low jitter, which is a measure of the short-term variations in the clock signal's timing. Low jitter is important for maintaining signal integrity and reducing errors in data transmission. The oscillator's small size makes it suitable for use in compact electronic devices.

Crystal oscillators are widely used in electronic systems because they provide a stable and accurate clock signal that is essential for proper operation. The crystal within the oscillator vibrates at a specific frequency, which is determined by the crystal's physical properties. The oscillator circuit amplifies and shapes this vibration to produce a clean and stable clock signal. The EG-2103CA156.2500M-PHRH is designed for applications that require a precise and reliable clock signal at a frequency of 156.2500 MHz.
