SIT9514X

The Cascade™ family of jitter cleaners and network synchronizers deliver a clock-system-on-a-chip by consolidating multiple clock ICs and oscillators into a single device for IEEE 1588, synchronized Ethernet (syncE) and high-speed SerDes. These MEMS clocks integrate SiTime’s third generation MEMS resonator and eliminate the dependency on quartz, along with all quartz related issues.

This integrated MEMS approach, combined with low noise and a feature-rich PLL IC, enable more robust system timing for high reliability systems. Benefits include guaranteed jitter that is not susceptible to noise coupling associated with crystal circuitry, always-accurate frequency synthesis without crystal capacitive mismatching, 10 times more vibration resistant, always-reliable startup in harsh environments, and fast hitless switching to ensure redundancy.
