ECS-P143-BX

Overview

The ECS-P143-BX is a programmable crystal oscillator (XO) manufactured by ECS Inc. It utilizes HCMOS output signals and operates on a 3.3V supply voltage. The device supports a frequency range from 1 MHz to 125 MHz with a total frequency stability of ±50ppm. It features an enable/disable function and draws a maximum supply current of 28mA. The component is designed for through-hole mounting in a 14-DIP package with four leads, housed in a full-size metal can enclosure. The operating temperature range extends from 0°C to 70°C.

Feature Summary

• Programmable frequency generation within the 1 MHz to 125 MHz range
• HCMOS signal output format for digital logic compatibility
• Integrated enable and disable control functionality
• Full-size metal can construction for robust shielding

Applications

• Clock signal distribution in embedded systems
• Timing reference sources for microprocessors
• Synchronization modules in industrial control equipment
• Data communication interface timing circuits

Procurement Notes

Verify that the specific part number matches the required frequency specification, as this model is programmed to order. Confirm the supply voltage requirement aligns with the system design, specifically noting the 3.3V rating. Ensure the through-hole mounting style fits the PCB layout constraints. Check for compliance with environmental regulations if applicable, as RoHS status may vary. Review the lead time for programming services when placing orders.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a precise, stable clock source is needed for digital applications requiring HCMOS outputs. Consider the ±50ppm stability for general-purpose timing needs. Evaluate the physical dimensions of the 14-DIP metal can against available board space. Compare power consumption requirements against the 28mA maximum draw. Assess thermal management capabilities within the 0°C to 70°C operating range.

Part Context

This oscillator belongs to the ECS-P143 series of programmable devices. It shares the same form factor and electrical characteristics as other variants in the family, such as the ECS-P143-AN, though differences exist in temperature ranges and stability specifications. The series is designed for applications requiring customizable frequencies without maintaining extensive inventory of pre-programmed units.
