552CD000260DG

Pin Configurable/Selectable Oscillators have become increasingly important in the development of technique and have the advantage of being small and efficient but powerful components.This makes them ideally suited for applications where space or environmental constraints limit the size and availability of other oscillators.

The 552CD000260DG (552CD) is a pin configurable/selectable oscillator developed by Epson which is designed for applications requiring precise fine tuning and various frequency outputs. This oscillator operates from 3V to 3.6V and provides frequency range from 1.2kHz to 21.47MHz. It also features a frequency stability of up to 10ppm, almost able to cover a wide range of applications.

The 552CD is an ideal choice for applications that require precise fine tuning, as it allows for easy configuration of frequencies. It is a low-cost oscillator that is programmable directly through pins and is available in either a through-hole or a surface-mount package. The pin configuration makes it easy to adjust the output frequency without any additional circuitry or the need to power off the oscillator. It also features a low-jitter digital control interface allowing for easy programming of parameters.

The working principle of the 552CD is quite straightforward. It utilizes three external pins (voltage, ground, and frequency adjust) to configure the frequency output of the oscillator. The voltage pin is used to set the desired output frequency, while the ground pin is used to ground the voltage that is used to set the frequency. The frequency adjust pin is used to fine tune the frequency output of the oscillator.

Due to its small size and high accuracy, the 552CD is ideal for applications requiring precise frequency control without the need for complex circuitry. It can be used in various applications ranging from industrial control systems to medical monitoring devices, telecom products, and instrumentation systems. In addition, the 552CD is suitable for a wide range of environmental conditions as it is designed to withstand temperatures from -40°C to 85°C.

The 552CD pin configurable/selectable oscillator is an ideal choice for applications that require precise and variable frequency control. It is low-cost, easy to configure, and available in both through-hole and surface-mount packages. With its small size, low jitter, and high accuracy, it is suitable for a wide range of applications.
