CY2V014FLXIT

Overview

The CY2V014FLXIT is a field-programmable LVPECL Voltage Controlled Crystal Oscillator (VCXO) manufactured by Cypress Semiconductor. It operates within a frequency range of 50 MHz to 690 MHz and supports supply voltages of 3.3 V or 2.5 V. The device integrates a low-noise phase-locked loop (PLL) and an embedded crystal, eliminating the need for external components. It features a 6-pin Ceramic LCC SMD package with dimensions of 5.0 × 3.2 mm. The component is designed for industrial temperature ranges from -40 °C to 85 °C.

Feature Summary

• Field-programmable architecture allows customization of output frequency between 50 MHz and 690 MHz using CyberClocks™ Online Software.
• Integrated low-noise PLL synthesizes frequency from an embedded crystal, achieving typical RMS phase jitter of 1 ps at 106.25 MHz.
• Supports dual supply voltage operation at 3.3 V or 2.5 V with LVPECL differential outputs.
• Configurable OE/PD# pin enables fast asynchronous output enable/disable or low-power shutdown modes.

Applications

• Hard disk drive (HDD) clocking systems
• Consumer electronics requiring precise timing
• Networking equipment synchronization

Procurement Notes

Verify that the specific part number matches the required configuration, as this is a field-programmable device requiring programming before use. Confirm the ordering suffix indicates the correct temperature range and packaging format. Ensure access to programming tools such as the CY3672 programmer or third-party vendors for initial configuration.

Selection Notes

Select the CY2V014FLXIT when a customizable VCXO with LVPECL outputs is required for high-frequency applications up to 690 MHz. Consider the field-programmable nature for inventory reduction compared to factory-configured alternatives. Verify compatibility with the target system's supply voltage (2.5 V or 3.3 V) and ensure the industrial temperature rating (-40 °C to 85 °C) meets environmental requirements.

Part Context

This component belongs to the CY2V014 family of high-frequency VCXOs. The 'F' in the part number designates it as a field-programmable device, distinct from factory-configured variants like the CY2V014LXCxxxT. It shares the same core PLL technology and package footprint but requires user-defined programming via .JED files generated through Cypress software tools.

Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements must match the 6-pin Ceramic LCC SMD package and LVPECL output interface. Factory-configured equivalents like CY2V014LXIxxxT offer similar electrical characteristics but lack programmability. Verify that any substitute supports the required frequency range and absolute pull range specifications.
