090-02984-003

Overview

The Microchip Technology 090-02984-003 is a Chip-Scale Atomic Clock (CSAC) operating at a frequency of 16.384 MHz. It functions as a precision clock generator with one output, designed for through-hole installation in bulk packaging. The device operates on a supply voltage of 3.3 V and supports an industrial temperature range from -10°C to +70°C.

Feature Summary

• Integrates atomic clock technology within a chip-scale package for high stability
• Provides a single precise output signal without requiring external reference sources
• Operates independently of GPS or network synchronization signals

Applications

• Telecommunications base stations requiring timing resilience
• Network infrastructure equipment needing holdover capability
• Industrial control systems demanding stable clock references

Procurement Notes

Verify current manufacturing status as the component may be discontinued. Confirm specific ordering requirements and lead times directly with the manufacturer or authorized distributors before placing orders. Ensure compatibility with existing system power and thermal constraints.

Selection Notes

Select this component when high-frequency stability and independence from external time sources are required. Compare against standard crystal oscillators if environmental conditions exceed the specified temperature range. Verify that the through-hole package style aligns with the target PCB design.

Part Context

This part belongs to the SA.45s CSAC series from Microchip Technology. It serves as a specialized timing solution within the clock generators and support products category, offering atomic-level performance in a compact form factor suitable for embedded applications.

Replacement Considerations

Consult official documentation for confirmed substitute part numbers. Alternative options may include other CSAC models from the same series or different manufacturers providing similar frequency and stability specifications.
