White Paper: Crystal Solutions for Lower Power Applications

The Internet of Things [IoT] is the new wireless touchstone connecting live information, control mediums and hubs to wireless devices such as phones, tablets and computers. These applications are widely used in Smart Homes, Smart Cities, Smart Factories, Smart Healthcare, Smart Agriculture and Smart Energy.  Communication protocols and transmission frequencies are guided by standards such as IPv6, UDP, QUIC, Aeron and uIP.  As a result, next generation MCUs, SoCs or FPGAs created to meet new communication requirements have challenged chipset designers to develop architectures that provide improved fast communication along with low noise performance, but also at low power consumption.  Utilizing low power elements helps continuous operation over long periods of time, but also increase challenges like reductions in oscillator gain margin and signal to noise ratios.
