3 Description
Texas Instruments' Bulk-Acoustic Wave (BAW) is
a micro-resonator technology that enables the
integration of high-precision and ultra-low jitter clocks
directly into packages that contain other circuits. BAW
is fully designed and manufactured at TI factories like
other silicon-based fabrication processes.
The LMK6x device is a low jitter, fixed-frequency
oscillator which incorporates the BAW as the
resonator source. With a high-performance fractional
frequency divider, the LMK6x is capable of producing
any frequency within the specified range providing
a single device family for all frequency needs. The
device is factory-programmed per specific operation
mode, including frequency, voltage, output type, and
function pin. Contact a TI representative for additional
frequencies or other options.
The high-performance clocking, mechanical stability,
flexibility and small package options for this device
are designed for reference and core clocks in highspeed
SERDES used in Telecommunications, Data
and Enterprise Network and Industrial applications.
