512BAA000270BAGR

Overview

The Skyworks Solutions Inc. 512BAA000270BAGR is a standard clock oscillator from the Si512 series, designed for general-purpose applications. It operates within a frequency range of 0.1 MHz to 250 MHz and supports dual frequency outputs, specifically 148.351648 MHz and 148.5 MHz. The device features CMOS output format with a load capacitance of 15 pF. It requires a supply voltage between 2.97 V and 3.63 V, typically operating at 3.3 V, with a maximum current rating of 21 mA. The component is housed in a 5 mm x 3.2 mm SMD/SMT package with a height of 1.17 mm and functions reliably across an operating temperature range of -40°C to +85°C.

Feature Summary

• Supports dual frequency generation for versatile clocking requirements
• Features CMOS output format for direct logic interfacing
• Includes enable/disable functionality via pin configuration

Applications

• General-purpose digital system clocking
• Data communication interface timing
• Embedded processor clock sources

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific dual frequency selection (148.351648 MHz or 148.5 MHz) against design requirements before procurement. Confirm that the CMOS output level matches the receiving circuit's input thresholds. Ensure the power supply voltage remains within the 2.97 V to 3.63 V range to maintain specified performance and stability. Check the package dimensions for PCB footprint compatibility.

Selection Notes

Select this model when a general-purpose oscillator with dual frequency options is required. The CMOS output is suitable for lower-speed digital interfaces compared to LVDS alternatives. Consider the 100 PPM frequency stability for applications not requiring high-precision timing. The 5 mm x 3.2 mm package offers a balance between size and thermal performance for standard surface-mount assembly processes.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Si512 family of standard clock oscillators manufactured by Skyworks Solutions. The Si512 series provides flexible clock solutions with various output formats and frequency ranges. The 512BAA000270BAGR variant specifically utilizes the BAGR suffix indicating reel packaging, distinguishing it from cut-tape variants. It serves as a foundational timing element in electronic systems requiring stable clock signals.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other Si512 series parts with matching package and electrical characteristics, such as 512CAA000596BAGR or 512KCA000230AAGR, provided the frequency and output format requirements align.
