Epson’s TG7050EAN TCXO is said to provides short term stability to support IEEE-1588 Precision Time Protocol and Stratum3-compliant holdover for protection. It offers high frequency and high stability, with margin to industry maximum time interval error and time deviation specifications that maintain reliable operation. Meanwhile, Microsemi’s ZL30722 is suited to a range of communications applications, where it provides SyncE/IEEE-1588 synchronisation with excellent jitter performance.
Masayuki Kitamura, chief operating officer of Epson’s Microdevices Operations Division, said: “Working with Microsemi allows us to solve synchronisation problems for the latest packet networks, including small cells and mobile backhaul.”
Maamoun Seido, manager of Microsemi’s timing products business unit, added: “This collaboration not only helps provide our customers with standards compliance assurance, but also allows them to create a dependable solution for real world network conditions."
Together, the TG7050EAN and ZL30722 comply with ITU-T G.813, G.823, G.824, G.8261, G.8262 and G.8263 specifications, providing the frequency accuracy and phase synchronisation required by multiple wireless and wireline protocols. They also support ITU-T packet clock drafts and recommendations.
