NBXSGA008LNHTAG

Overview

The NBXSGA008LNHTAG is a single-frequency crystal oscillator (XO) from onsemi’s PureEdge/C0116 family, generating a fixed 161.1328 MHz LVPECL differential output. It utilizes a high-Q fundamental mode crystal and a Phase Lock Loop (PLL) multiplier to achieve ultra-low jitter and phase noise. The device operates on a 2.5 V ±5% or 3.3 V ±10% supply with a typical current draw of 91 mA. It features hermetically sealed ceramic packaging in a 6-pin CLCC (7x5 mm) form factor, ensuring robust performance across an operating temperature range of -40°C to +85°C.

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix 'LNHTAG' against official documentation to confirm the 100-unit tape and reel quantity. Confirm RoHS compliance status and lead times directly with the manufacturer or authorized distributors prior to procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring precise 161.1328 MHz clocking with strict jitter constraints. Ensure the design supports LVPECL termination using a VTT voltage equal to VDD minus 2.0 V. Verify that the PCB layout accommodates the 6-pin CLCC package dimensions and thermal requirements.

Part Context

This part belongs to the PureEdge/C0116 clock family, designed for precision timing solutions. It serves as a dedicated clock generator utilizing internal PLL multiplication of a fundamental crystal frequency to deliver stable differential outputs for high-speed digital interfaces.

Replacement Considerations

Consult the manufacturer's official cross-reference documentation for verified substitute part numbers. Do not assume functional compatibility with other oscillators based solely on frequency or package similarity without verifying electrical parameters.

FAQ

What is the default state of the Output Enable (OE) pin?

When left floating, the OE pin defaults to logic HIGH, keeping the output active.

How should the LVPECL outputs be terminated?

Outputs are typically loaded with 50 Ω receiver termination resistors connected to VTT, where VTT equals VDD minus 2.0 V.

What is the total frequency stability specification?

The total frequency stability is specified at ±50 ppm over the operating temperature range.
