Frequently Asked Questions
How is the output frequency of LTC6908CS6-1#PBF set and what range can it cover?
The LTC6908CS6-1#PBF output frequency is programmed by a single external resistor connected to the SET pin, covering a continuous range from 0.05 MHz up to 10 MHz. This resistor-only approach eliminates the need for a crystal, trimmer, or external filter, reducing BOM cost and simplifying PCB layout for prototype and volume production alike.
What is the output edge speed of LTC6908CS6-1#PBF and does it suit digital logic interfacing?
The LTC6908CS6-1#PBF has a CMOS output with a maximum fall time of 9 ns, which is fast enough to drive standard CMOS and TTL logic inputs directly at frequencies up to 10 MHz. This clean edge performance ensures reliable clock reception at downstream microcontroller, FPGA, or counter IC inputs without additional buffering.
When would LTC6908CS6-1#PBF be chosen over a crystal oscillator for a 1 MHz system clock?
LTC6908CS6-1#PBF is preferred when absolute frequency accuracy better than ±40% is not required and when eliminating 2 to 4 crystal load capacitors and a crystal can from the BOM is more valuable than precision. For battery-powered consumer toys, simple timers, or hobby electronics where a 1 MHz ±10% clock is acceptable, the SOT-23-6 oscillator delivers a simpler, lower-cost solution than a crystal oscillator module.
How does the YTEOL of 0 for LTC6908CS6-1#PBF affect the long-term supply plan for a production design?
A YTEOL of 0 means LTC6908CS6-1#PBF is at or near end-of-life from Analog Devices. Procurement teams should investigate available stock at franchised distributors, consider placing a last-time-buy for at least 24 months of consumption, and qualify a replacement oscillator such as the LTC6906 or a competing resistor-programmable CMOS oscillator with equivalent 0.05 MHz to 10 MHz range.
