NBVSPA024LNHTAG

Programmable Timers And Oscillators Overview

The NBVSPA024LNHTAG is a Voltage-Controlled Crystal Oscillator (VCXO) from the PureEdge/C0116 series by onsemi. It generates an LVDS differential clock output at a factory-configured frequency of 160.00 MHz. The device operates on a single 3.3 V ±10% supply with a typical current consumption of 75 mA. It features ultra-low jitter of 0.5 ps (12 kHz to 20 MHz) and a frequency stability of ±50 ppm. The unit includes a pullable range of ±100 ppm via an analog control voltage input and is housed in a hermetically sealed ceramic CLCC-6 package.

Programmable Timers And Oscillators Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the manufacturer's documentation to confirm package dimensions and shipping configuration. The datasheet indicates that the 'LU' suffix corresponds to the smaller 3.2 x 5.0 x 1.2 mm CLCC package, while 'LN' denotes the 5.0 x 7.0 x 1.8 mm variant. Confirm availability status directly with the manufacturer or authorized distributors as some smaller package variants may require factory consultation.

Programmable Timers And Oscillators Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring precise 160 MHz clock generation with low jitter specifications. Ensure the design supports a 3.3 V power supply and provides a control voltage range compatible with the ±100 ppm pullability requirement. Verify that the PCB layout accommodates the specific CLCC package size associated with the chosen ordering suffix and includes appropriate 100 Ω termination resistors across the differential LVDS outputs.

Programmable Timers And Oscillators Part Context

This part belongs to the NBVSPA015 Series, which covers frequencies ranging from 74.25 MHz to 200 MHz. The NBVSPA024 specifically targets the 160 MHz output frequency within this family. Other members include NBVSPA017 (156.25 MHz), NBVSPA018 (155.52 MHz), and NBVSPA042 (74.25 MHz). All share similar electrical characteristics and packaging options.

Programmable Timers And Oscillators Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements within the same series include NBVSPA024LN1TAG and NBVSPA024LU1TAG, differing primarily in package size and shipping reel specifications. Cross-family substitution requires verification of pin compatibility and electrical parameters.
