AX7MBF2-311.0400C

Oscillators are essential components of all types of electronic systems and devices, providing a fundamental element in which an electrical signal can be generated and regulated to a high degree of accuracy. The AX7MBF2-311.0400C is an outstanding example of an oscillator that offers incredible precision and stability at a low cost. This article will discuss the application field and working principle of the AX7MBF2-311.0400C, providing an in-depth look at the features of this device.

The AX7MBF2-311.0400C belongs to a type of oscillator known as a MEMS oscillator. This type of oscillator takes advantage of the properties of the piezoelectric material known as a MEMS resonator. A MEMS resonator is a tiny vibrating device that is mounted on a substrate, usually silica. An AC voltage, usually DC, is applied to the resonator, and as it vibrates, it produces a high accuracy frequency. This frequency is then fed to the output of the oscillator circuit, which can then be used in many different applications, such as timing and synchronization.

The AX7MBF2-311.0400C has an output frequency of 4.00MHz, with a range that can be adjusted to within ±20ppm of the set frequency. This makes it ideal for use in systems requiring high accuracy timing, such as RF, Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth applications. Additionally, the device can operate over a wide temperature range of -40°C to +85°C, making it suitable for use in harsh environments. It also features short-term stability of up to 0.25ppm, which is very impressive for an oscillator of this type. These features make the AX7MBF2-311.0400C an ideal choice for applications requiring accurate timing and synchronization.

The inner workings of the AX7MBF2-311.0400C oscillator start with the piezoelectric material of the MEMS resonator. When a voltage is applied to the resonator, it begins to vibrate. This vibration is transferred to a proof mass via a flexible suspension, which then produces a frequency that is fed to the output of the oscillator. The proof mass is then kept in place by two other adjustable parameters—the pull spring coefficient of the suspension and the damping coefficient of the mass.

The AX7MBF2-311.0400C is a highly effective oscillator that can be used for a wide range of applications. Its stability and accuracy make it an ideal choice for timing and synchronization applications, and its wide temperature range and short-tem stability ensure that it can operate reliably in harsh environments. It is this combination of features that makes the AX7MBF2-311.0400C an exceptional example of an oscillator.
