DESCRIPTION
The MAS9278 is an integrated circuit well suited to
build VCXO for mobile communication. The crystal
offset trimming is done through a serial bus and
the calibration information is stored in an internal
PROM.
To build a VCXO only one additional component, a
crystal, is needed.
Low Power
Wide Supply Voltage Range
True Sine Wave Output
Very High Level of Integration
Integrated Varactor
Electrically Trimmable
Very Low Phase Noise
Low Cost
FEATURES

Note:
Because the substrate of the die is internally connected to GND, the die has to be connected to GND or
left floating. Make sure that GND is the first pad to be bonded. Pick-and-place and all component assembly are
recommended to be performed in ESD protected area.
Note:
Pad coordinates are measured from the left bottom corner of the chip to the center of the pads. The
coordinates may vary depending on sawing width and location, however, distances between pads are accurate.
