Active979 in stock

Overview

The ASDMB-12.000MHZ-LY-T is a high-performance 12 MHz MEMS oscillator from Abracon's Pure Silicon series. This LVCMOS-output device provides a highly stable clock source in a compact 2.50mm x 2.00mm 4-SMD package, supporting a wide supply voltage range from 1.8V to 3.3V.

Why Choose This Part

This oscillator features exceptional frequency stability of +/-10ppm and utilizes MEMS technology for superior shock and vibration resistance compared to traditional quartz crystals. Its plastic QFN-type packaging ensures high reliability, while the wide supply voltage compatibility simplifies integration into mixed-voltage systems.

Applications

Microcontroller Clocking
Provides a precise 12 MHz reference clock for MCUs, DSPs, and FPGAs in industrial or consumer electronics.
USB Peripherals
Ideal for USB-to-serial bridges or peripheral controllers that require an external 12 MHz timebase.
Battery-Powered Sensors
Utilizes a Standby (Power Down) function to minimize current draw when the system is inactive.
Industrial Automation
Reliable operation in harsh environments with a broad temperature range of -40C to +105C.

Getting Started

To integrate this component, ensure the supply pin is decoupled with a 0.1uF ceramic capacitor placed close to the VDD pin. The Standby pin (Pin 1) should be pulled high for normal operation or driven low to enter power-down mode. Verify that the LVCMOS output load does not exceed the specified trace capacitance to maintain signal integrity.
