ECS-P8F3-AN

Overview

The ECS-P8F3-AN is a pre-programmed crystal oscillator manufactured by ECS Inc. It utilizes an HCMOS output interface and operates at a supply voltage of 3.3V. The component features a maximum supply current of 28mA and is housed in a surface-mount SOJ-4 package with a 5.08mm pitch. It supports frequencies ranging from 1 MHz to 125 MHz and functions within an operating temperature range of -10°C to 70°C.

Feature Summary

• Pre-programmed frequency configuration for immediate integration
• HCMOS digital output signal compatibility
• Surface mount SOJ-4 packaging design

Applications

• Embedded system clock generation
• Microcontroller timing circuits
• Digital communication interfaces

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against official ECS documentation, as variations such as -DG or -ND may indicate different packaging or processing specifications. Confirm that the required frequency falls within the standard 1 MHz to 125 MHz range. Ensure the ambient operating environment remains within the specified -10°C to 70°C limits to maintain performance reliability. Cross-reference the datasheet version to ensure compliance with current product change notices.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a fixed-frequency HCMOS clock source is required for 3.3V logic systems. The SOJ-4 package suits applications needing compact surface-mount solutions. Verify that the pre-programmed frequency meets the exact target requirements, as programmable variants allow custom tuning. Consider the thermal operating range for industrial or commercial environments.

Part Context

This part belongs to the ECS P8F3 series of pre-programmed crystal oscillators. The series provides stable clock signals for digital circuits using HCMOS outputs. The AN suffix typically denotes specific programming or packaging attributes defined by the manufacturer. These components replace discrete crystal and resonator setups with integrated oscillator solutions.

Replacement Considerations

Public confirmed substitute part numbers are not available in the provided documentation. Check for direct equivalents within the ECS P8F3 family, such as the ECS-P8F3-B, ensuring identical voltage, package, and frequency specifications before substitution.
