Clock jitter cleaners

Our radiation-hardened clocking solutions solve clocking requirements for radio-frequency front ends and data processing.

Building on our 60 years of expertise in the space market, our radiation-hardened systems knowledge can help you meet your mission-critical design requirements and achieve space-grade certification faster, from low earth orbit to deep-space missions.

In addition to the traditional radiation-hardened ceramic (QML-V) packages we also offer products in

• Radiation-hardened plastic (QML-P) packages with SEL ≥65MeV⋅cm2/mg and TID ≥100krad (Si)
• Radiation-tolerant plastic (space EP) with SEL ≥43MeV⋅cm2/mg and TID ≥30krad (Si)

Our clocking portfolio spans from clock-distribution solutions to high-performance network synchronizers and RF synthesizers.

• Supports JESD204B and JESD204C applications by providing phase-synchornized clocking and SYSREF signals to data converters, field-programmable gate arrays and systems-on-a-chip (SoCs) 
• IEEE 1588v2 Precision Time Protocol (PTP) software provides full timing support with 1pps signal deviation ±2ns that meets Class D performance for ITU-T profiles and partial timing support, less than ±1µs with PDVs in excess of 230µs

BAW technology ultra-low jitter performance meets the stringent clocking requirements of 800Gbps and 1.6TBps Ethernet-based networks and 5G/6G wireless infrastructure applications.

• Voltage-controlled BAW oscillator (VBCO): Our network synchronizers incorporate BAW technology as a VCO that provide at least a 20dB advantage over traditional LC-tuned VCOs and resulting in clocks with <50fs jitter performance. 
• BAW reference clock: Our BAW-based oscillators and clock generators provide a clean clocking source to meet the stringent bit error rate requirements for EtherCAT, Serdes, PCIe, and ASIC/FPGA clocking.
