It can be used in many telecommunications applications due to its highly stable output. The VCXO provides flexibility to handle changing temperatures, voltages, and environmental conditions, and its small size enables it to be used in a variety of different hardware platforms.
It can also be used in audio systems and other applications requiring high-precision frequency control. Its low jitter and power consumption makes it a suitable choice for high-performance and energy-constrained environments.
Working Principle
The LFSPXO018492REEL utilizes a small quartz disc as its oscillating element. The quartz is subjected to an electric field from a DC voltage source which controls the frequency of the oscillation. This frequency is then used to generate the output signal.
The crystal produces a precise frequency which allows the output to remain highly stable, even when the operating conditions change. This is due to the fact that quartz does not change its resonant frequency in response to input voltage or temperature variations.
The VCXO also makes use of loop-filter circuitry which is used to provide further frequency stability, as well as reduce jitter. It also contains a high-precision voltage reference, which ensures that the oscillator output can be tightly controlled.
Conclusion
The LFSPXO018492REEL is a Voltage-Controlled Crystal Oscillator (VCXO) which provides precise frequency control and low jitter for a variety of industrial and consumer applications. Its small size and highly stable output enable it to be used in many different system designs, and its generous operating range and low power consumption make it suitable for a wide range of environments.
