A MSC Vertriebs product story

Edited by the Electronicstalk editorial team Dec 16, 2010

MSC Vertriebs has launched the SiT9107, a MEMS-based HF oscillator from Sitime, designed for applications such as Ethernet switches, solid-state drives, optical line terminals and servers.

The SiT9107 features a wide frequency range from 220MHz to 800MHz and user-configurable output signalling levels such as low-voltage positive emitter coupled logic, low-voltage differential signalling, CML and HCSL.

Additional features of the oscillator, which is available in footprints of 5.0 x 3.2mm and 7.0 x 5.0mm, include good frequency stability of +/-10, +/-15, +/-20, +/-25 and +/-50ppm, up to five decimal places of frequency accuracy and three available operating voltages from 1.8V to 3.3V.

The SiT9107 targets high-performance applications such as Raid controllers, host bus adapters, memories and PCIe-based embedded applications.

It supports common protocols such as Gigabit and 10Gigabit Ethernet, SAS, Sata, DDR as well as microprocessor and FPGA clocking.
