The ECX-L25CM-32.000 oscillator is a low-noise circuit designed for long-term, high reliability operation in demanding applications. Its wide operating temperature range (-40 to +85°C) makes it suitable for a variety of applications, such as medical, automotive, military, and communications systems. It is especially well-suited for precision timing circuits in satellite and GPS systems, where high accuracy and low noise levels are essential for successful operation. The oscillator can also be used for clock generation, synchronization, signal conditioning, and frequency-to-voltage conversion.

Design

The ECX-L25CM-32.000 oscillator is designed around a two-stage frequency-determining network based on a low-noise amplifier and a passive element, such as a resistor or capacitor. The amplifier is a low-voltage, low-current bipolar junction transistor (BJT), which acts as a gate to the passive component of the oscillator. This allows the oscillator to maintain a stable output frequency over a wide range of input voltages and temperatures. The oscillator incorporates a voltage-controlled sine-wave generator and a phase-locked loop (PLL) circuit for frequency adjustment. The PLL circuit ensures that the output frequency is maintained with a very high degree of accuracy even under varying temperature and voltage conditions.

Working Principle

The ECX-L25CM-32.000 oscillator works according to the basic principles of a tuned oscillator. The oscillator circuit consists of an amplifier, a passive component (such as a resistor or capacitor), and a small-signal diode. The amplifier acts as the gate to the passive element, allowing the oscillator to amplify the voltage at a certain frequency. The small-signal diode allows the oscillator to be tuned to a specific frequency, by changing the current in the diode as the oscillator’s frequency changes. The high-stability and low-noise characteristics of the ECX-L25CM-32.000 oscillator are due to the sophisticated construction of its components and the sophisticated tuning of the internal PLL circuit.
