Quad Frequency Family

( 1 Jan 2006 )

Silicon Laboratories announces the Si530 and Si550 families of oscillators (XOs) and voltage-controlled oscillators (VCXOs) for applications up to 1.4 GHz.These product families include quad frequency XO and VCXO devices. With DSPLL technology, the company is able to move frequency control and tuning from a complex resonator to a single CMOS IC, enabling the Si530 and Si550 families to deliver total frequency stability over time and temperature. The families leverage the frequency synthesis capability of a mixed-signal IC to eliminate complex materials processing steps required to frequency tune traditional SAW and crystalbased implementations.
