Application Field

ASTMHTA-106.250MHz-ZR-E-T is a tiny, high precision, low-noise temperature compensated crystal oscillator (TCXO) that is designed for general-purpose applications such as military, satellite, microwave, aerospace, communications, radar, navigation and much more. The oscillator utilizes advanced low-power CMOS technology, allowing it to operate over a wide temperature range from -40°C to +85°C, with a frequency stability of +10ppm. The device also features a power supply voltage range from +1.8V to +3.3V. The device is ideal for use in high-reliability systems, providing stabilizing solutions for time-sensitive applications.

Working Principle

An oscillator’s main function is to maintain a stable voltage level within a given frequency range. This is achieved by converting the electrical energy into mechanical energy which is then converted back into electrical energy. The ASTMHTA-106.250MHz-ZR-E-T oscillator utilizes this principle by utilizing an oscillating circuit consisting of an inductor, a capacitor, and an amplifier.

The ASTMHTA-106.250MHz-ZR-E-T oscillator works by sending an alternating electric current through a resonant circuit formed by the inductor and capacitor. This circuit has an inherent frequency due to the value of the components and this frequency is known as the natural resonance frequency. When the oscillator sends an alternating current through this resonant circuit, the resonance frequency causes the electrical current to oscillate and form an oscillating waveform.

The oscillator is also equipped with temperature compensation circuitry which allows it to maintain a steady and precise frequency regardless of varying environmental conditions. This feature is due to the oscillator being able to respond to changes in temperature by adjusting the intrinsic frequency to compensate for these variations. This allows the oscillator to remain at the exact frequency it was set at, even during temperature fluctuations.

Conclusion

ASTMHTA-106.250MHz-ZR-E-T is an ideal solution for wireless systems, military and aerospace applications, and for other timing and controlling applications. The oscillator combines high precision and low noise operation with temperature compensation circuitry to provide an ideal device for precise timing and controlling applications. The oscillator utilizes advanced low-power CMOS technology and is designed to operate over a wide temperature range, and allows it to offer enhanced performance wherever it is used.
