Micro Oscillator, Inc. (MOI), an innovative provider of all silicon clock oscillators, today announced the release of its military temperature range version of the MOI-2000 clock oscillator. It is completely compatible with the mounting techniques used with all standard I.C., hybrid and Chip on Board (COB) applications.

The MOI-2000 clock oscillator is a CMOS integrated circuit that provides the frequency accuracy of ceramic resonators in microcontroller based systems while operating in harsh environments. The MOI-2000 is very durable, reliable and starts up fast at the correct frequency every time. Unlike ceramic resonators or crystal oscillators that rely on mechanical vibration for frequency generation, the MOI-2000 generates its frequency through an integrated circuit with no mechanical vibration

The MOI-2000 is available for 5V or 3.3V in the frequency range from 2MHz to 12MHz. The patented oscillator can operate at +/- 1.0% total frequency accuracy over an military temperature range of –55 deg C to 125 deg C at shock and vibration of up to 80 kg’s. A high temperature version is available operating up to 150 deg C. Total tolerance is inclusive of initial frequency tolerance, tolerance over temperature and voltage, and long-term tolerance.

The MOI-2000 is a proven product that is used on board F/A-18 fighters and inside military ammunitions; MOI’s breakthrough technology also offers integration opportunities.

Production samples of the MOI-2000 are available now.
