Working principle

The AX7DCF1-161.132812T oscillator works on the principle of phase-locked loop (PLL). The circuit consists of a voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO) and a frequency synthesiser. The PLL circuit controls the frequency of the oscillator by sensing the input frequency and by tuning the output frequency to be equal to the input frequency.

The frequency of the oscillator can be adjusted by varying the input voltage. This voltage is generated by the frequency synthesiser and is compared to the output frequency of the oscillator. When the frequencies match, the oscillator maintains the same stable output frequency.

The AX7DCF1-161.132812T oscillator also features a temperature-compensated automotive voltage regulator for improved reliability. This regulator ensures that the voltage supplied to the oscillator is maintained at a stable level even when the temperature changes.
