NEW COST-COMPETITIVE TCVCXO FROM FOX FEATURES A 50% REDUCTION IN LENGTH

Fort Myers, FL (PRWEB) May 4, 2003 -- Fox Electronics, Americas leading supplier of frequency control products, now offers a temperature compensated, voltage controlled crystal oscillator (TCVCXO) that measures only 3.2 mm x 2.5 mm x 1.2 mm, half the length of previous oscillator models. The significantly reduced footprint and extremely competitive pricing of the new FOX923E makes the oscillator ideal for applications where size and cost are critical, such as in the portable, handheld, and wireless markets.

The frequency range of the FOX923E is 13 to 26 MHz, with a supply voltage range of 2.85 to 3.15 VDD and an initial frequency tolerance of -0.5 to +0.5 ppm at 25°C ±2°C (77°F ±35.6°F). Standard operating temperature is -20°C to 75°C (-4°F to 167°F). The new TCVCXOs frequency stability is -2.5 to +2.5 ppm over the temperature range and
-0.2 to +0.2 ppm over the supply voltage change of 3.0 V ±5%. Pullability is ±5 to ±15 ppm at a control voltage of 1.5 ±1.0V and input current is 2.0 mA at 3.0 V at 25°C (77°F).

Pricing for the new FOX923E with a stability of ± 2.5 ppm and a frequency of 26 MHz starts at $1.99 per unit in quantities of 10,000. Delivery is 8 weeks ARO.
