Clock buffers, multiplexers meet stringent PCIe Gen6 spec

April 19, 2022 By Redding Traiger

Renesas Electronics Corporation introduced the first clock buffers and multiplexers that meet stringent PCIe Gen6 specifications. Renesas is offering 11 new clock buffers and 4 new multiplexers. The new devices, which also support and provide an extra margin for PCIe Gen5 implementations, complement Renesas’ low-jitter 9SQ440, 9FGV1002, and 9FGV1006 clock generators to offer customers a complete PCIe […]

The PC-board atomic clock, Part 1: Primary and secondary standards

September 24, 2021 By Bill Schweber

Atomic clocks have shrunk from room-sized assemblies to PC-board mountable modules, admittedly with lower performance than their big siblings but still far better than crystal-based timing alternatives. Atomic clocks are based on the transitions of energy states of specific elements such as cesium, ytterbium, rubidium, and others under specific and tightly controlled conditions. They are […]

Choosing, using, and designing oscillators

February 26, 2021 By Chris Francis

Most electronics today have oscillators in them. Digital circuitry needs a clock. Radio frequency signals require an oscillator or clock. Some analog circuitry also needs a clock or oscillating signal source. If you are using a microcontroller then it might have a built-in clock, although it may not be accurate enough, depending on your application, […]

Free-running reference oscillators span 10 MHz to 100 MHz with low phase noise

May 25, 2017 By Aimee Kalnoskas

Pasternack has released six new free-running reference oscillators that generate a highly stable and accurate output frequency response with low phase noise and spurious performance levels, making them ideal in phase locked loops, function generators, frequency synthesizers and receivers for communication, radar, navigation, surveillance and test and measurement applications. These free-running, fixed-tuned oscillators use a high-stability […]

What is a clock and what are its critical parameters (Part 1)?

March 29, 2017 By Bill Schweber

The “clock” function is a standard part of nearly every electronic system, with very few exceptions. Behind this simple-sounding, commonplace word, there is an array of complexity and subtlety in definition, performance, and design. Clocks are both vital and ubiquitous, so it is worth understanding the different functions they fulfill, they ways they can be […]
