High performance differential oscillator for Networking, Storage and Industrial applications

High performance differential oscillator for Networking, Storage and Industrial applications

SiTime Corporation, the technology and market share leader in MEMS-based silicon timing solutions, today
introduced the SiT9107, a high frequency, programmable, differential oscillator for Networking, Storage and
Industrial applications. The SiT9107 offers many programmable features that enable customers to configure the
device exactly to their specifications. SiTime also ships these customized samples in an industry-leading 48 hours
and can deliver production volumes in 3-5 weeks.
“All of SiTime’s products have unique, programmable features are just not available from quartz oscillators,” said
Piyush Sevalia, VP of Marketing at SiTime. “It is a well-known fact that as clock frequency increases, quartz-based
SAW and overtone devices suffer in features, performance, availability and size. In the past, customers were forced
to compromise on their requirements by choosing only those high frequency quartz oscillators that were easily
available. Our SiT9107 eliminates these compromises – not only can the customers configure the device to their
exact requirements, but they can also get samples and production quantities with the world’s shortest lead times.
By offering such unique benefits to customers, SiTime is fundamentally changing the timing components industry.”
The SiT9107 is used in high performance applications such as Ethernet Switches, Solid-State Drives (SSD), Optical
Line Terminals (OLT), RAID controllers and Host Bus Adapters (HBA), Servers, Memories, and PCIe-based
embedded applications. The SiT9107 supports common protocols such as Gigabit and 10 Gigabit Ethernet, SAS,
SATA, DDR, microprocessor and FPGA clocking.
The key features of the SiT9107 are listed below:

Wide frequency range (220 MHz to 800 MHz) that supports a large range of applications

Configurable output signaling level, LVPECL, LVDS, CML, HCSL, eliminates need for external level
translators

Excellent frequency stability, ±10, ±15, ±20, ±25 and ±50 PPM, for best performance

Up to 5 decimal places of frequency accuracy, provides most precise, customized clock

1.8V operating voltage supports newer ASSPs, while 2.5V and 3.3V are also available.

Available in industry standard footprints (5.0x3.2 and 7.0x5.0 mm) for easy replacement of existing
quartz-based solutions

Industry’s fastest lead time, 3-5 weeks for production quantities

100% Quartz Free
Availability and Pricing:
The SiT9107 is available now in volume production. The devices are priced at $7.13 in 1000 units for frequencies
up to 500 MHz, 50 PPM stability, commercial temperature range in a 5.0x3.2 package.
