Crystal oscillator overcomes size constraints
A new ultra-low-power 32kHz crystal oscillator integrates a 32.768kHz tuning fork crystal and an advanced CMOS circuit assembled in a specifically designed package
The EM1564 is a new 32kHz crystal oscillator from EM Microelectronic. This ultra-low-power circuit integrates a 32.768kHz tuning fork crystal and an advanced CMOS circuit assembled in a specifically designed package. The EM1564 combines excellent oscillator stability and very low power consumption with an outstanding voltage operating range from 1.2 to 5.5V.

With a standard temperature range from -40 to +85C, the device is also available for an extended temperature range up to +125C.
The EM1564 is yet another result of the joint effort of Micro Crystal and EM Microelectronic, two companies of the Swatch Group Electronic Systems (SGES).
The product demonstrates how this group takes advantage of the synergies arising from the technological, cultural and geographical proximity of its companies.
The EM1564 package can replace standard quartz as a solution to limitations of miniaturisation.
It is also a convenient solution when application difficulties arise with quartz or on-chip embedded oscillators.
'EM Microelectronic's solution offers top performance in temperature range and miniaturisation', says Mougahed Darwish, President of the Management Board of EM Microelectronic.
'Furthermore, the EM1564 offers the widest voltage range'.
The EM1564's primary application is a general purpose crystal oscillator in digital systems.
It is especially well-suited for various metering and automotive applications, such as a dashboard.
It can also be used as a clock driver - timekeeping in networked servers and computers, in data logger systems, mobile phone or GPS applications.
The device is also sold to component manufacturers as an input clock driver or as an add-on circuit for all types of microcontrollers that can be driven using an external clock.
The EM1564 crystal oscillator package is available in a 10-pin package from EM Microelectronic and its authorised distributors.
