Oven-Controlled Crystal Oscillators (OCXOs) and Evacuated Miniature Crystal Oscillators (EMXOs)

High-Stability, Low-Power, Low-Phase-Noise and Low g-Sensitivity OCXOs


The OCXO, which stands for Oven Controlled Crystal Oscillator, provides optimal frequency stability by heating an SC-cut crystal and critical circuitry to a single temperature and maintaining that temperature over a range of environmental temperature changes.

An OCXO is an excellent choice when your application requires a timing reference with part-per-billion frequency stability, extremely low phase noise, short-term stability, low aging or low holdover.
