AK5DAF1-200.0000T2 - ABRACON

AK5DAF1-200.0000T2 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the recommended PCB layout for optimal performance?
  Abracon recommends a symmetrical PCB layout with a solid ground plane, and the oscillator should be placed as close as possible to the microcontroller or IC. A minimum of 10 mils (0.25 mm) clearance around the oscillator is recommended to minimize noise and interference.
• How do I handle the oscillator's output signal in my design?
  The AK5DAF1-200.0000T2 has a CMOS output signal, which can be directly connected to a microcontroller or IC. However, it's recommended to use a series resistor (e.g., 1 kΩ) to limit the output current and prevent damage to the oscillator or connected devices.
• What is the operating temperature range for this oscillator?
  The AK5DAF1-200.0000T2 has an operating temperature range of -40°C to +85°C. However, it's essential to note that the oscillator's frequency stability and accuracy may degrade at extreme temperatures.
• Can I use this oscillator in a high-vibration or high-shock environment?
  The AK5DAF1-200.0000T2 is designed to meet the requirements of MIL-STD-202, Method 204, for vibration and shock. However, it's recommended to consult with Abracon's application engineers to ensure the oscillator meets the specific requirements of your application.
• What is the recommended power supply decoupling for this oscillator?
  Abracon recommends using a 10 μF to 22 μF ceramic capacitor in parallel with a 10 nF to 100 nF ceramic capacitor as close as possible to the oscillator's power supply pins. This helps to filter out noise and ensure stable operation.
