NEWSPACE : EWOS5500

20 MHz Oven Controlled Crystal Oscillator

EWOS5500 provides a unprecedent trade-off between global performances and high reliability for large volume space applications. It can be delivered in several thousand units at low price, providing a simultaneously very high frequency stability, accuracy and very low power consumption.

It can be used for GNSS, OBC, ranging or Radio functions withint Mini & Microsatellites operating in Low Earth Orbits.

its ASIC core has been tested against radiations up to 100 krad, and this OCXO is robust against shocks & vibrations.  Will be flight proven in 2018.

Characteristics
  • Small size (1.6 cm3) in DIL 14 hermetically sealed package

  • Very low power OCXO, 300mW @ -40°C / atmospheric pressure

  • +5 V power supply

  • 9E-11 short term stability ( t = 1 sec.)

  • ±250 ppb typical frequency stability in -40°C/+75°C temperature range
