(pressebox) Stutensee, 28.01.2011 – MSC now offers the ‚Time Machine‘, a complete programming kit for SiTime’s MEMS-based silicon timing solutions. This MEMS oscillator programmer features fast programming support for various singled-ended-, differential-, spread spectrum- and VCXO MEMS oscillator samples.
Thanks to the adapters supplied, five different blank MEMS with packages sizes from 2.5×2.0 mm to 7.0×5.0 mm can be processed. Programming of the desired frequency – depending on the type, 1 MHz to 800 MHz is possible – and the programming process itself usually takes less than one minute.
The frequency stability is up to ±20 ppm. The frequency itself can be programmed with up to five decimal places of accuracy. Furthermore, the programmer can choose between four supply voltages – 1.8 V, 2.5 V, 2.8 V or 3.3 V.
Apart from the programming unit with USB interface and various package adapters, the kit contains a USB cable, a HDMI cable, an AC/DC adapter and an installation CD. In addition, regular software updates are offered via the Internet.
