Micropower, Low-Jitter, 1Hz - 1MHz Programmable Super TCXO
The Smart Timing Choice
Description
SiT1576 is an ultra-small and ultra-low power Factory
programmable TCXO with an output frequency range
between 1 Hz to 1 MHz. SiTime’s silicon MEMS technology
enables the first 1 Hz - 1 MHz TCXO in the world’s smallest
footprint and chip-scale packaging (CSP). Typical supply
current is 4.5 µA (33 kHz) under no load condition.
SiTime's MEMS oscillator consists of a MEMS resonator and
a programmable analog circuit. SiT1576 MEMS resonator is
built with SiTime’s unique MEMS First™ process. A key
manufacturing step is EpiSeal™ during which the MEMS
resonator is annealed with temperatures over 1000°C.
EpiSeal creates an extremely strong, clean, vacuum
chamber that encapsulates the MEMS resonator and
ensures the best performance and reliability. During EpiSeal,
a poly silicon cap is grown on top of the resonator cavity,
which eliminates the need for additional cap wafers or other
exotic packaging. As a result, SiTime’s MEMS resonator die
can be used like any other semiconductor die. One unique
result of SiTime’s MEMS First and EpiSeal manufacturing
processes is the capability to integrate SiTime’s MEMS die
with a SOC, ASIC, micropro- cessor or analog die within a
package to eliminate external timing components and
provide a highly integrated, smaller, cheaper solution to the
customer.
TCXO Frequency Stability
SiT1576 is factory calibrated (trimmed) over multiple
temperature points to guarantee extremely tight stability over
temperature. Unlike quartz crystals that have a classic tuning
fork parabola temperature curve with a 25°C turnover point
with a 0.04 ppm/°C2 temperature coefficient, the SiT1576
temperature coefficient is calibrated and corrected over
temperature with an active temperature correction circuit. The
result is a 32 kHz TCXO with extremely tight frequency
variation over the -40°C to +85°C temperature range.
When measuring the output frequency of SiT1576 with a
frequency counter, it is important to make sure the counter's
gate time is >100 ms. Shorter gate times may lead to
inaccurate measurements.
Dynamic Temperature Frequency Response
Dynamic Temperature Frequency Response is the rate of
frequency change during temperature ramps. This is an
important performance metric when the oscillator is mounted
near a high power component (e.g. SoC or power
management) that may rapidly change the temperature of
surrounding components.
For moderate temperature ramp rates (< 2°C/sec), the
dynamic response is primarily determined by the steady-state
frequency vs. temperature of the device. The best dynamic
response is obtained from parts which have been trimmed to
be flat in frequency over temperature.
For high temperature ramp rates (>5°C/sec), the latency in the
temperature compensation loop contributes a larger frequency
error, which is dependent on the temperature compensation
update rate. This part achieves excellent performance at 3Hz
update rate. This device family supports faster update rates
for further reducing dynamic frequency error at the expense of
slightly increased current consumption.
