Abracon ClearClock® differential oscillator
Ultra-low-jitter timing for optical, AI, and high-speed infrastructure
Abracon ClearClock® family includes ultra low jitter differential oscillator solutions supporting LVPECL, LVDS, and HCSL outputs, with wide voltage flexibility and compact package options. These devices are engineered to maintain timing margin in high speed data paths where jitter, noise, and layout constraints directly impact system performance.
Abracon’s new 312.5 MHz Low Jitter ClearClock® Differential Oscillators are designed to meet the signal integrity demands of today’s high speed digital systems, including optical modules, data centers, networking switches, servers, and PCIe based architectures.
With package sizes down to 2.0 × 1.6 mm, 26 fs phase jitter, frequency stability as tight as ±20 ppm, and operating temperature support up to +105 °C on select series, ClearClock® differential oscillators enable designers to balance size, performance, and integration flexibility across a range of modern clock architectures.
Abracon’s ClearClock® family AK1B, AK2B, and AK3B differential output crystal oscillators, designed to deliver exceptional signal integrity in high-speed data environments. These devices feature ultra-low RMS jitter, with the AK1B achieving as low as 35fs and the AK2B/AK3B down to 54fs at 156.25MHz, ensuring stable clock signals essential for reliable data transmission and processing. The AK1B, housed in an ultra-miniature 2.0 x 1.6mm package, is ideal for space-constrained applications like optical transceivers, while the AK2B/AK3B are available in popular industry-standard sizes for broader system compatibility. All models support LVPECL, LVDS, and HCSL outputs and offer flexible voltage options enabling seamless integration across telecom, industrial, and networking systems. With extended temperature ratings up to +105°C, the ClearClock™ series is optimized for performance, precision, and versatility.
Expanding Abracon’s ClearClock® oscillator portfolio, we are pleased to introduce our AK1F3 and AK2F3 series of Low Jitter 312.5MHz, ±20ppm, -40ºC to +105ºC differential oscillators available in industry standard 2016 and 2520, package sizes. Offering jitter as low as 26fs and output options of LVPECL, LVDS, and High Swing LVDS (800mV to 1.6mV Vppd) meeting the next generation 800G, 1.6T and 3.2T DSP requirements.
The ClearClock® Differential Oscillators are designed to meet the signal integrity demands of today’s high speed digital systems, including optical modules, data centers, networking switches, servers, and PCIe based architectures.
