SG-8101CA-TCHSB

Overview

The SG-8101CA-TCHSB is a programmable CMOS oscillator from Epson, designed for precise clock generation in compact electronic systems. It operates within a frequency range of 670 kHz to 170 MHz, offering flexibility for various digital interfaces. The device supports supply voltages between 1.62V and 3.63V, ensuring compatibility with low-power applications. Frequency stability is rated at ±20 ppm over the operating temperature range. Packaged in a 4-SMD, no-lead form factor, this component integrates standby functionality to minimize power consumption during idle periods.

Feature Summary

• Programmable frequency output capability allowing customization across a wide spectrum
• Integrated standby mode for enhanced power efficiency management
• CMOS output signal compatible with standard digital logic families

Applications

• Portable consumer electronics requiring compact timing solutions
• Industrial control systems needing reliable clock signals
• Communication modules utilizing high-frequency data transmission

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific frequency configuration required for your application before ordering, as this is a programmable device. Confirm that the 4-SMD package dimensions align with your PCB layout constraints. Ensure the supply voltage range matches your system's power rails. Check for RoHS compliance documentation if environmental regulations apply to your manufacturing process. Validate the operating temperature range against your intended environment.

Selection Notes

Choose this model when design flexibility requires a single component to support multiple frequency options across different product variants. Consider its small footprint for space-constrained designs. Evaluate the standby feature if power management is critical for battery-operated devices. Compare performance requirements against fixed-frequency oscillators to determine if programmability adds sufficient value to justify potential cost differences.

Part Context

This component belongs to Epson’s SG-8101CA series of programmable oscillators, which are engineered to replace traditional crystal units in modern electronics. The series addresses the need for rapid prototyping and inventory reduction by allowing frequency customization without changing physical components. It represents a shift towards flexible timing solutions in high-volume manufacturing environments.

Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements may include other Epson programmable oscillators from the same family with compatible pinouts. Verify electrical parameters such as load capacitance and drive strength when substituting with generic alternatives. Ensure the replacement supports the required frequency range and voltage levels.
