Frequently Asked Questions
What supply voltage and frequency accuracy does the VCC1-9003-48M0000000-CT provide?
The VCC1-9003-48M0000000-CT operates from a 3.3 V supply and delivers a 48 MHz output frequency with ±50 ppm stability. This level of accuracy ensures reliable clocking in embedded and communication designs across an industrial temperature range of -40°C to +85°C.
Which embedded or communication designs benefit most from a 48 MHz oscillator at 3.3 V?
USB full-speed and high-speed interfaces require exactly 48 MHz reference clocking, making this oscillator ideal for USB hubs, device controllers, and host adapters. Microcontroller systems running at 48 MHz or using it as a PLL input also benefit, especially where the 3.3 V rail is the primary logic supply.
How does the 15 pF load capacitance specification affect PCB layout for the VCC1-9003-48M0000000-CT?
The 15 pF load capacitance value determines the external capacitors needed if used in a passive crystal circuit, but since VCC1-9003-48M0000000-CT is an active oscillator it drives loads up to 15 pF directly. PCB trace lengths should be minimized to keep stray capacitance below this 15 pF threshold and preserve the ±50 ppm frequency accuracy.
Can the VCC1-9003-48M0000000-CT operate reliably in outdoor or industrial enclosures reaching 85°C?
Yes, the VCC1-9003-48M0000000-CT is rated for -40°C to +85°C, covering the full industrial temperature range. At 85°C the frequency remains within the ±50 ppm specification, making it suitable for factory automation, outdoor communication units, and automotive-adjacent applications that experience elevated ambient temperatures.
