Fox Electronics, America’s leading supplier of frequency control products, has introduced a new 3.3V, HCMOS ceramic surface mount oscillator that features a small form factor and low power consumption. The F230 is designed for use in portable and space-constrained devices including PDAs, cell phones, MP3 players, laptop computers, DVD players, video and digital cameras, as well as Bluetooth, PCMCIA cards, small rack-mount and portable test equipment.

The compact F230 measures only 2.5 mm x 2.0 mm, with a low profile of just 0.8 mm. Its power consumption is one of the lowest in the industry. At 12MHz, the F230 requires only 7mA of input current during full operation and only 5µA of power during standby operation. The new oscillator offers a frequency range of 0.84MHz to 75MHz; a frequency stability of ± 100 PPM ; an operating temperature range of -20°C (-4°F) to +70°C (+158°F); and long-term aging of ±5 PPM per year. Other tolerances, stabilities and operating temperature ranges are also available. The F230 surface mount oscillator is fully RoHS compliant.
