CY2X013FLXCT

Programmable Timers And Oscillators Overview

The CY2X013FLXCT is a field-programmable LVDS crystal oscillator (XO) manufactured by Cypress Semiconductor. It utilizes an integrated low-noise phase-locked loop (PLL) to synthesize output frequencies ranging from 50 MHz to 690 MHz, excluding specific gaps between 521–529 MHz and 596–617 MHz. The device features less than 1 ps typical RMS phase jitter and operates on a 3.3 V or 2.5 V supply. It provides a differential LVDS output pair and includes an asynchronous Output Enable (OE) or Power-Down (PD#) function via Pin 1. The component is housed in a 6-pin, 5.0 × 3.2 mm leadless chip carrier (LCC) package.

Programmable Timers And Oscillators Feature Summary

• Field-programmable architecture using CyClockWizard software for custom frequency configuration
• Low-jitter performance with less than 1 ps typical RMS phase jitter
• Integrated PLL synthesizing frequencies from 50 MHz to 690 MHz
• Supports both 3.3 V and 2.5 V supply voltages

Programmable Timers And Oscillators Applications

• High-performance clock generation for digital systems
• Data communication interfaces requiring low jitter
• Embedded processor and controller clocking

Programmable Timers And Oscillators Procurement Notes

Verify the 'F' suffix confirms the field-programmable nature of the unit. Ensure the ordering suffix matches the required temperature range; this specific part number corresponds to the commercial range (0 °C to 70 °C). Confirm the tape and reel packaging format aligns with automated assembly requirements before procurement.

Programmable Timers And Oscillators Selection Notes

Select this model when a customizable clock frequency within the 50–690 MHz range is required without external crystals. Note that the device must be programmed prior to installation using JEDEC files generated by CyClockWizard. For industrial temperature applications (-40 °C to 85 °C), select the CY2X013FLXIT variant instead.

Programmable Timers And Oscillators Part Context

This component belongs to the CY2X013 family of LVDS crystal oscillators. The 'F' designation specifically identifies it as a field-programmable device, distinct from factory-configured variants like the CY2X013LXI series. It shares the same physical package and core PLL technology but requires user-defined programming.

Programmable Timers And Oscillators Replacement Considerations

For industrial temperature requirements, use CY2X013FLXIT. Factory-configured alternatives include CY2X013LXI125T (125 MHz) or CY2X013LXI200T (200 MHz). Direct cross-model replacements are not listed in the documentation.
