CMOS Oscillators Come In Package And Die Form

Supposedly a first, the MM8202 and MM8102 all-silicon CMOS oscillators are available in both wafer and package forms. The wafer form versions enable chip-on-board (CoB) and multi-chip module (MCM) assembly designs. The MM8202 and MM8102 are both built on standard CMOS technology and do not require any mechanical frequency references, be it quartz or MEMS. Frequency accuracy is lower than 300 ppm for the MM8102 and both devices consume an active power of 2 mA typical at 1.8V. Prices range from $0.52 to $0.59 each/1,000.
