ECS-P8F3-B

Overview

The ECS-P8F3-B is a surface-mount programmable crystal oscillator manufactured by ECS Inc. International. It utilizes a base crystal resonator and is housed in a 4-SOJ package with a 5.08mm pitch. The component supports a maximum supply voltage of 3.3V and draws a maximum supply current of 28mA. It features an Enable/Disable function for power management control. The device outputs CMOS signals and operates within a temperature range of -10°C to 70°C. Frequency stability is rated at ±50ppm, inclusive of 25°C tolerance and operating temperature range effects.

Feature Summary

• Supports programmable frequency generation via digital configuration
• Integrates enable/disable functionality for system power control
• Utilizes a standard 4-SOJ surface-mount package for compact integration

Applications

• Embedded systems requiring precise clock synchronization
• Industrial control equipment needing stable timing references
• Consumer electronics utilizing programmable clock sources

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffixes and revision codes against the manufacturer's official documentation to ensure compatibility with your design requirements. Confirm that the ±50ppm stability rating meets your system's jitter and phase noise specifications. Check for end-of-life status or alternative recommendations from ECS Inc. before finalizing procurement plans.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a low-profile surface-mount oscillator with programmable frequency capabilities is required. Ensure the 3.3V supply voltage aligns with your system's power rails. Consider the ±50ppm stability specification relative to your application's timing accuracy needs. Verify that the 4-SOJ footprint fits within your PCB layout constraints.

Part Context

The ECS-P8F3-B belongs to the P8F series of programmable oscillators from ECS Inc. This series offers flexibility in frequency selection while maintaining a small form factor. The 'B' suffix typically denotes the ±50ppm stability variant, distinguishing it from other models with different tolerance ratings or voltage supplies within the same product family.
