Voltage-controlled oscillator KXO-77 with low power consumption wins the 2nd place for Product of the Year             


The KXO-77 voltage-controlled oscillator (VCXO) has been awarded 2nd place in the prestigious "Product of the Year" awards by Elektronik magazine. This annual competition highlights top innovations in eight categories, recognizing outstanding achievements in the field of electronics. The KXO-77 stood out in the "E-mechanics and Passive Components" category, earning high praise from Elektronik magazine's readers.

An Industry Leader in VCXO Technology

The KXO-77 is the latest addition to our VCXO portfolio and is designed to meet the increasing demands of high-frequency stability and low power consumption in modern electronic applications. Notably, it is the first oscillator on the market offering a 27 MHz output with a maximum current consumption of just 2 mA, setting a new standard for low-power oscillators.

Available in a compact size of 3.2 / 2.5 / 1.0 mm, the KXO-77 operates across a broad frequency range of 1 MHz to 170 MHz at a supply voltage of 3.3V, with alternative options for 1.8V and 2.5V, making it highly versatile for a range of applications. It also features a frequency stability of ±37 ppm across a wide temperature range of -40°C to +85°C, ensuring reliable performance in challenging environments. Additionally, the oscillator offers a pull-in voltage of up to ±140 ppm and a control voltage of 1.65 V±1.35 V, further enhancing its appeal for demanding applications where precision frequency control is critical.

Ideal for High-Precision Applications

The KXO-77 is specifically designed for applications requiring high-frequency stability and low jitter, such as broadcast systems, test and measurement instruments, and digital signal processing devices. Its robust specifications ensure that it performs reliably in scenarios where precise frequency control is required, and the low current consumption makes it an attractive choice for energy-conscious applications.
