ASEM1-50.000MHZ-LC-T

Overview

The ASEM1-50.000MHZ-LC-T is a high-performance CMOS output MEMS oscillator from Abracon designed to provide a stable 50.000MHz clock signal. Operating at 3.3V, this industrial-grade timing source utilizes MEMS technology to deliver superior reliability and shock resistance compared to traditional quartz crystals. It features a compact 3.2 x 2.5 mm QFN footprint, making it suitable for high-density PCB layouts.

Why Choose This Part

The MEMS-based architecture offers exceptional durability, maintaining a frequency tolerance of 50ppm across the full industrial temperature range of -40C to +85C. Unlike quartz oscillators, this device is immune to vibration-induced failures and features a significantly lower aging rate. Its low profile 0.85mm height is ideal for space-constrained mobile or wearable designs.

Applications

Getting Started

To integrate this oscillator, connect the 3.3V supply to Pin 4 and GND to Pin 2, ensuring a 0.1uF decoupling capacitor is placed close to the VDD pin. The CMOS output on Pin 3 can directly drive most digital IC clock inputs; ensure PCB trace lengths are minimized to prevent signal reflection. For prototyping, this 4-pin QFN package requires a compatible land pattern or a dedicated SMT breakout board.
