SiTime has 48-hour availability for MEMS oscillators.
Previously, customers had to wait up to 20 weeks and sometimes pay NREs to get oscillators that were configured to their exact requirements.
With 48-hour availability for samples and low-volume production quantities, industrial and IoT customers can dramatically accelerate their time to revenue.
“We are excited about our new value-add partnership with SiTime Corporation and the ability to offer custom programmed MEMS timing solutions to our customers worldwide.” says DigiKey’s David Stein, “SiTime’s customisable, MEMS technology, combined with Digi-Key’s ability to process an order within 48 hours and seamlessly ship globally, will enable faster time-to-market.”
SiTime’s low-power oscillators: SiT8008/9, SiT8208/9, SiT2001/2; high-temp and automotive oscillators: SiT8918/9, ST8920/1, SiT8924/5, SiT2018/9, SiT2020/1, SiT2024/5; differential oscillators: SiT9121/2; VCXOs: SiT3808/9; µPower oscillators and TCXOs: SiT1569, SiT1576/9, and spread spectrum oscillators SiT9002/3/5, SiT9025 can be customized and shipped in 48 hours from Digi-Key, SE-Spezial in Europe, Jointech in China, Seungjun in South Korea, and from SiTime.
The Elite Platform of differential oscillators and precision TCXOs will be available for 48-hour shipment starting in early Q2 2020.
SiTime’s Endura series of high reliability, ruggedized oscillators will be available for 48-hour shipment in late 2020.
SiTime’s rapid programming service accelerates the phases of typical product development to help technology innovators take an industrial and IoT product idea to design and production quickly and easily.
SiTime datasheets, as well as the Part Number Generator on the SiTime website, list all the programmable configurations available for these MEMS oscillators.
Among the most popular programmable options are frequency (with up to six decimal places of accuracy), supply voltage, output drive type and drive strength, operating temperature range, and frequency stability.
“Fast, efficient delivery of oscillators has been the Achilles heel of the quartz industry for decades,” says SiTime’s Piyush Sevalia, “with 48-hour lead time for our MEMS timing solutions, SiTime is once again transforming the timing market and leading the industry in availability.”
Compared to legacy timing solutions, SiTime’s MEMS timing solutions offer programmability along with high performance, reliability, small size, low power consumption, frequency stability over temperature, and resilience to mechanical shock and vibration. Customers are using these benefits to solve unique and stringent timing problems..
