Our BAW resonators improve traditional resonator technologies, with increased reliability in terms of vibration, shock and mean time between failure (MTBF) and failure in time (FIT) performance, which are priorities in harsh environmental conditions.

Benefits:

• BAW resonators can maintain a stability of <2ppb/g with no jitter or frequency degradation before, during or after a vibration event.
• Under a mechanical shock of 1500g, BAW resonators can maintain <0.5ppm frequency deviation and do not experience jitter degradation.
• BAW resonators have a 0.3 FIT rate or 3.3 billion hours MTBF at 35°C, equivalent to 0.3 failures over 1 billion hours of operation.

Our FODs provide excellent jitter performance with a range of output clock frequencies.

Benefits:

• For clock generator products, integrating high-frequency BAW with an FOD in packages as small as 3mm by 3mm generates clocks with frequencies from 1MHz to 400MHz.
• Spread-spectrum clocking integrated into the FODs reduces system electromagnetic interference.
• Glitchless output-frequency programmability with <10ppb resolution steps using FODs provides precise output clock frequency adjustment.
• FODs used as a startup clock are programmable to output swing or output type at the vendor factory or on-site using the I²C interface.

Our BAW technology offers ultra-low jitter performance that meets the stringent clocking requirements of 800Gbps and 1.6TBps Ethernet-based networks and 5G and 6G wireless infrastructure applications.

Benefits:

• Our network synchronizers that incorporate BAW technology as a voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO) provide at least a 20dB advantage over traditional inductor-capacitor-tuned VCOs, resulting in clocks with <50fs jitter performance.
• Our BAW-based oscillators and clock generators provide a clean clocking source to meet the stringent bit-error-rate requirements for EtherCAT, SerDes, Peripheral Component Interconnect Express, and application-specific integrated circuit and field-programmable gate array clocking.

Our clocking portfolio includes clock-distribution solutions, high-performance network synchronizers and radio-frequency (RF) synthesizers.

Benefits:

• Supports JEDEC JESD204B and JESD204C applications by providing phase-synchronized clocking and SYSREF signals to data converters, field-programmable gate arrays and systems-on-a-chip.
• Institute for Electrical and Electronics Engineers 1588v2 precision time protocol (PTP) software provides full timing support with 1pps signal deviation (±2ns) to meet Class D performance for International Telecommunication Union Telecommunication Standardization Sector profiles, and partial timing support (≤1μs) with packet delay variations >230μs.
• Compliant with G8275.1 and G.8275.2 PTP telecom profiles.

Our radiation-hardened clocking solutions address clocking requirements for radio-frequency front ends and data processing, helping you meet mission-critical design requirements and achieve space-grade certification faster, from low earth orbit to deep space missions.

Benefits:

• Packages include traditional radiation-hardened ceramic (Qualified Manufacturers List [QML] Class V); radiation-hardened plastic (QML Class P) with single event latchup (SEL) ≥65MeV?cm2/mg and total ionizing dose (TID) ≥100krad; and radiation-tolerant plastic (space enhanced product [EP]) with SEL ≥43MeV?cm2/mg and TID ≥30krad.

High-performance, ultra-low-noise phase-locked loops (PLLs) and wideband radio-frequency (RF) voltage-controlled oscillators (VCOs) are core functions for state of-the-art jitter cleaner, RF synthesizer and network synthesizer integrated circuits.

Benefits:

• Combine in-house, optimized silicon germanium process technology with decades of experience in RF architecture and circuit design
• Clocking solutions that can help you meet requirements for better noise performance, higher operating frequencies, smaller size and lower power.
