Abracon’s temperature-controlled oscillator, or TCXO, series provides the ideal tradeoff between precision timing performance and small size to meet emerging 5G design requirements. The ultra-performance TCXOs deliver high precision holdover accuracy in the most popular industry package sizes. In addition, temperature compensation leads to temperature stability that ranges from 0.1ppm to 2ppm, which is great for GPS, femtocells, mobile connectivity applications, RF devices, Stratum III clock systems, and other applications that require stable timing.

Abracon’s TCXO’s also have excellent phase noise performance and are offered with frequencies up to 50MHz. They’re housed in tiny, RoHS-compliant SMD packages that are compatible with reflow soldering and suitable for use in high-density designs. They also have low current consumption to support battery-powered applications.
