LTC6906

PRODUCTION

Micropower, 10kHz to 1MHz Resistor Set Oscillator in SOT-23

Viewing:

Overview

  • Supply Current: 12μA at 100kHz
  • <0.65% Frequency Accuracy (from 0°C to 70°C)
  • Frequency Range: 10kHz to 1MHz
  • One Resistor Sets the Oscillator Frequency
  • Single Supply: 2.25V to 5.5V
  • –40°C to 125°C Operating Temperature Range
  • No Decoupling Capacitor Needed
  • Start-Up Time Under 200μs at 1MHz
  • First Cycle After Power-Up is Accurate
  • 150Ω CMOS Output Driver
  • Low Profile (1mm) SOT-23 (ThinSOT™) Package

The LTC6906 is a precision programmable oscillator that is versatile, compact and easy-to-use. Micropower operation benefits portable and battery-powered equipment. At 100kHz, the LTC6906 consumes 12µA on a 3.3V supply.

A single resistor programs the oscillator frequency over a 10:1 range with better than 0.5% initial accuracy. The output frequency can be divided by 1, 3 or 10 to span a 100:1 total frequency range, 10kHz to 1MHz.

No decoupling capacitor is needed in most cases, yielding an extremely compact solution occupying less than 20mm2.  Contact LTC Marketing for a version of the part with a shutdown feature or lower frequency operation.

The LTC6906 is available in the 6-lead SOT-23 (ThinSOT) package.
