The 200 MHz frequency targets high-speed serial interfaces such as Gigabit Ethernet, PCIe Gen 1/2, and SATA reference clocks where LVDS signalling provides low jitter and differential noise immunity. The wide range also covers the tolerance of a typical 3.3 V supply in an industrial environment.
Industrial temperature grade and standby power savings
The MEMS resonator holds frequency stability to ±25 ppm across this range, eliminating the warm-up drift of a quartz crystal. For a battery-backed real-time clock or a sensor node that sleeps most of the time, this saves milliamps compared to leaving the oscillator running.
