Active154 in stock

Overview

The ASTX-H11-24.000MHZ-T is a Temperature Compensated Crystal Oscillator (TCXO) that provides a stable 24 MHz HCMOS output. It is designed for applications requiring high frequency precision in a compact 3.2mm x 2.5mm surface-mount package. Operating at 3.3V, this oscillator features an enable/disable function to assist with power management in sensitive electronic designs.

Why Choose This Part

The primary advantage of this TCXO is its tight frequency stability of +/-2.5ppm across an operating temperature range of -30C to +75C. Its small 3225 footprint and low-profile 1mm height make it ideal for high-density PCB layouts. The integrated enable/disable function allows for reduced current consumption during idle states.

Applications

Communication Reference Clocks
Provides a stable frequency source for RF transceivers and wireless modules that require tight timing margins.
Industrial Control Systems
Used as a master clock for microcontrollers and FPGA systems operating in environments with fluctuating temperatures.
Network Hardware
Serves as a reliable clock source for Ethernet switches and routers requiring +/-2.5ppm stability.

Getting Started

To implement this part, ensure the 3.3V supply is decoupled with a 0.01uF to 0.1uF ceramic capacitor placed close to the VDD pin. The HCMOS output can directly drive standard digital logic inputs, but trace length should be minimized to reduce EMI and signal integrity issues. Verify that the load capacitance of your circuit does not exceed the maximum specified in the Abracon datasheet to maintain frequency accuracy.
