NT3225SA-26.000000MHZ-G8

Overview

The NT3225SA-26.000000MHZ-G8 is a Voltage-Controlled Temperature Compensated Crystal Oscillator (VCTCXO) manufactured by NDK. It operates at a nominal frequency of 26 MHz with a clipped sine wave output. The device is supplied at 2.75V and features a frequency stability of ±2.5 ppm. It consumes a maximum supply current of 2 mA and functions within a temperature range of -10°C to +85°C. The component utilizes a 4-SMD, no-lead surface-mount package measuring 3.20mm x 2.50mm in area and 1.00mm in height.

Feature Summary

• Provides precise clock signals via voltage-controlled temperature compensation for enhanced frequency stability across varying thermal conditions.
• Delivers a clipped sine wave output suitable for direct interfacing with digital logic circuits without additional buffering.
• Supports low power consumption with a maximum supply current of 2 mA, optimizing energy efficiency in portable applications.

Applications

• Wireless communication modules requiring stable carrier frequencies
• GPS and GNSS receiver systems demanding high timing accuracy
