SG-9101CA-C02PHBAB

Overview

The SG-9101CA-C02PHBAB is a programmable spread spectrum crystal oscillator (XO) manufactured by EPSON. It features a CMOS output and operates within a supply voltage range of 1.62V to 3.63V. The device supports a frequency range from 670 kHz to 170 MHz, with programming handled via distributor order notes. It includes an enable/disable function and offers a center-spread bandwidth of ±0.25%. The component is housed in a compact 4-SMD, no-lead package measuring 2.50mm x 2.00mm x 0.80mm maximum height. It is designed for operation across a temperature range of -40°C to 105°C.

Feature Summary

• Programmable frequency generation within the 670 kHz to 170 MHz range using standard crystal technology.
• Integrated spread spectrum modulation capability with center-spread bandwidth configuration.
• Supports digital control through dedicated enable and disable input pins for power management.

Applications

• High-speed serial communication interfaces requiring precise clock signals
• Embedded systems and microcontroller boards needing flexible frequency options
• Consumer electronics devices utilizing compact surface-mount components

Procurement Notes

This component is supplied as a blank oscillator that requires specific frequency programming prior to shipment. Customers must specify the desired operating frequency in the order remarks when purchasing through authorized distributors such as DigiKey. The unit is available in tube packaging and is classified as a make-to-order item. Verification of the exact frequency requirement during the ordering process is essential to ensure the delivered part matches the system design specifications.

Selection Notes

Engineers should select this model when a small form factor is required alongside customizable frequency outputs. The wide supply voltage tolerance allows compatibility with various logic levels. The extended industrial temperature range makes it suitable for demanding environments. Designers must account for the programming lead time associated with custom frequency requests. Ensure the application does not require pre-programmed frequencies if immediate stock availability is critical.

Part Context

The SG-9101CA-C02PHBAB belongs to the SG-9101CG series of programmable spread spectrum crystal oscillators. This family is characterized by its ability to reduce electromagnetic interference (EMI) through frequency dithering. The CA suffix typically denotes specific pinout or electrical characteristics within the broader product line. These oscillators are designed to replace fixed-frequency crystals in designs requiring flexibility or EMI mitigation strategies.

Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements must match the 4-SMD 2.5x2mm package and CMOS output type. Verify that substitute parts support the same 1.62V to 3.63V supply range and -40°C to 105°C operating temperature. Check if alternative models offer similar spread spectrum capabilities if EMI reduction is required. Ensure the replacement also supports programmable frequencies if custom values are needed.
