Lattice FPGA’s integrate SiTime clock system on chip
SiTime Corporation announced that it will provide its precision timing solutions to Lattice Semiconductor, the low-power programmable leader. The SiTime devices, a Cascade MEMS-based Clock-System-on-a-Chip (ClkSoC), and an Emerald OCXO or Elite X Super-TCXO are incorporated into Lattice’s new synchronization hardware development platform. Key features of the Cascade SiT95141 Clock-System-on-Chip Family include: Integrated MEMS resonator, enabling designers…
How timing propagates in a 5G network
5G’s high speeds place extreme demands on the components that maintain accurate time. Compliance with industry timing standards calls for accuracy in the face of temperature changes, shock, and vibration.
Clock oscillator achieves 0.2 ppm frequency tolerance
Depending on temperature range, the SiT7910 Super TCXO from SiTime can attain frequency stability of less than 0.1 ppm. Clock oscillator circuits serve two functions. They provide a clock timing signal for digital circuits such as microprocessors and they keep track of time, often for time-stamping of events. While oscillators for digital circuits typically produce […]
