Oscillators are electronic circuits that use the feedback principle to generate a repetitive electrical signal with a steady frequency and phase, typically used to measure or regulate time intervals. The SIT1602BI-13-18N-27.000000G oscillator is a high-precision device that applies this principle to produce a fixed frequency signal for various type of applications.
Application Fields
The SIT1602BI-13-18N-27.000000G oscillator is widely used in a wide range of applications which include:
- Clock signal generation for digital devices.
- Reference frequency sources for data acquisition systems.
- Signal synchronization in communication systems.
- Auxiliary frequency sources in microcontroller designs.
- Pulse width modulation in frequency modulation controls.
The oscillator’s outputs are typically used in frequency modulated applications within the HF, VHF, and UHF radio bands. It also provides an excellent low-cost method for generating oscillations in the lower frequency range of 1 kHz to 10 MHz.
Working Principle
The SIT1602BI-13-18N-27.000000G oscillator works by using two differential amplifiers connected in an inverting bridged configuration to form a high-that circuit. The first stage, the common-mode input stage, generates an input voltage from an input signal and converts the AC signal to DC. The second stage, the complementary-mode amplifier, takes the DC voltage generated by the input stage and creates an oscillating signal with a frequency determined by its load capacitance and bias current.
This oscillator circuit uses 4 transistors which produce 3 oscillation signals on the output known as bootstrapped, drain, and source. The bootstrapped signal is the most stable and provides the best output waveform accuracy. The source and drain signals are used in slower frequency applications. This oscillator also has a very low power consumption and is highly efficient in applications where low power availability is a factor.
The SIT1602BI-13-18N-27.000000G oscillator is well suited for applications that require very precise and reliable frequencies, such as RF circuits and data acquisition systems. Its low power consumption allows it to be used in battery operated devices, and its robust output stage makes it ideal for applications at high temperatures. Furthermore, its low cost and high performance makes it an excellent choice for applications where cost efficiency is an important consideration.
