MK2761ASTR

The MK2761ASTR is a high-performance clock generator which is specially designed for low-jitter frequency synthesizing applications. It can be used to generate and monitor multiple clock outputs, up to 5, with high accuracy and low jitter. The device supports clock frequencies up to 100MHz with an operating range of 5MHz to 104MHz. The reference frequency range is 25MHz to 50MHz.The clock outputs can be synchronized to any of the reference frequencies, allowing for maximum flexibility. The clock generator also features ultra-low additive jitter, making it ideal for telecom and networking applications.

The MK2761ASTR operates on a simple principle, enabling it to generate and monitor multiple clock outputs, with very high accuracy. It uses a PLL (Phase Locked Loop) to synthesize output frequencies from a reference frequency. The PLL consists of a voltage controlled oscillator (VCO), a phase detector, and a loop filter. The phase detector is used to compare the phase difference between the input signal and the signal from the VCO. When the phase difference reaches a minimum, the VCO creates a signal that is locked in phase with the input signal. This signal is then used as the reference for the clock outputs.

The MK2761ASTR offers several advantages over other clock generators. Firstly, it features a wide operating range of 5MHz to 104MHz, allowing it to be used in a variety of applications. Secondly, it offers low additive jitter and fast locking times, making it ideal for telecom and networking applications. Finally, the device is also very cost-effective, making it a great cost/benefit option.

In summary, the MK2761ASTR is a high-performance clock generator with a wide operating range, low additive jitter and fast locking times. It is ideal for telecom and networking applications due to its low jitter and fast locking times, and its cost-effectiveness makes it a great choice for any budget-minded buyer. The MK2761ASTR is an excellent choice for any low-jitter frequency synthesizing applications.
