The ECS-2100AX-160 is an 8-pin DIP clock oscillator from the ECS-2100X series, designed for HCMOS/TTL logic compatibility with a 5.0 V DC supply. It operates at 160 MHz, with frequency stability of ±100 ppm across the temperature range of 0 to +70 °C. The device draws 82 mA typical current, features a 5 ns rise and fall time, and provides TTL output levels of 0.5 V low and 4.5 V high. The metal package includes an integrated shield via pin 4 (case ground) to reduce radiation. Operating temperature range is 0 to +70 °C, with storage from -55 to +125 °C. The oscillator meets RoHS compliance and has a 10 ms start-up time. Output load is 30 pF for HCMOS at frequencies above 80 MHz.
Oscillators are a critical part of regulating any internal operations for microelectronics. It serves as a sort-of heartbeat for PCB design. When it comes to timing solutions, clock signals can be produced by using either mechanical resonant devices or electrical phase shift circuits. However, due to their superior accuracy, high-frequency capabilities and low temperature coefficients, mechanical resonant devices are considered the best choice in most applications.
ECS Inc. oscillators include quartz oscillators, as well as silicon hybrid clock oscillators, with a complete range of performance options. Both offer distinct advantages, and when you purchase your passive components from ECS Inc., you can rest assured knowing that you’re working with a global industry leader in microelectronic components.
