ECS-300CX-128

Oscillators are electronic components that generate an electrical signal at a set frequency. The ECS-300CX-128 is an oscillator developed by ECS Incorporated. It is a clock/timing product designed to generate a high-precision output signal for various applications, including: audio/sound, network communications, industrial, instrumentation and control.

This oscillator uses a voltage-controlled crystal oscillator (VCXO) to generate accurate and stable frequencies with low jitter. The crystal timing elements of the VCXO contribute to the device\'s superior frequency stability. Frequency stability is achieved through a unique combination of design parameters, including: bias circuit, reference capacitor, inverse slopes, linearity curve, frequency adjustment range and frequency control.

The ECS-300CX-128 is provided in a small plastic package, allowing for easy incorporation with other components on a PCB. It is characterized by a wide supply voltage range of 2.5V to 4.3V and a wide operating temperature range of -40°C to +85°C. It is configured to generate a precise output clock signal up to 128MHz. The device is designed for use with quartz crystal tuning elements. It is available in a variety of package sizes to accommodate both through-hole mounting and surface mount technology.

The working principle of the ECS-300CX-128 is straightforward. It oscillates by feeding the output of a quartz crystal back to the input. An oscillating signal is generated when the crystal resonates between the input and output. A PLL (Phase-Locked Loop) circuit is then used to control the frequency of the oscillator. By controlling the voltage applied to the quartz crystal, the PLL is able to adjust the output frequency according to the change in the input voltage. The device is designed to have an extremely small tolerance (0.1ppm) and to maintain stability over a wide temperature range.

Due to its low jitter and extremely small tolerance, the ECS-300CX-128 is highly sought after for use in many applications. It is ideal for use in audio systems, where precise sound frequency is required. It is also useful in network communications, where accuracy and reliability are critical. Furthermore, the device is perfect for industrial, instrumentation and control systems, as it ensures accuracy during operation with minimal calibration.

In conclusion, the ECS-300CX-128 is a highly accurate and reliable oscillator designed to generate a high-precision output signal for a variety of applications. It has a wide range of features that make it suitable for use in audio/sound, network communications, industrial, instrumentation and control systems. With its low jitter and extremely small tolerance, it is the perfect choice for those who require accuracy and reliability.
