SiTime offers MEMS oscillators worldwide at 48-hours’ lead times
To accelerate customers’ designs, SiTime now offers its MEMS oscillators with 48-hour worldwide availability, supported by a worldwide network of distributors, including Digi-Key and SE-Spezial.
In a recent announcement, the company said its MEMS oscillators are always available, in-stock from SiTime or preferred partners, and ready to ship in 48 hours.
SiTime’s popular low-power oscillators, the SiT8008 / SiT8009, SiT8208 / SiT8209, SiT2001 / SiT2002, its high-temperature and automotive oscillators, the SiT8918 / SiT8919, SiT8920 / SiT8921, SiT8924 / SiT8925, SiT2018 / SiT2019, SiT2020 / SiT2021, SiT2024 / SiT2025, its differential oscillators, the SiT9121 / SiT9122, SiTime’s VCXOs (SiT3808 / SiT38090, uPower oscillators and TCXOs (SiT1569, SiT1576 and SiT1579) and spread spectrum oscillators (SiT9002 / SiT9003 / SiT9005 and SiT9025) can be customised and shipped in 48 hours from Digi-Key, SE-Spezial in Europe, Jointech in China, Seungjun in South Korea, and from SiTime.
The Elite Platform of differential oscillators and precision TCXOs will be available for 48-hour shipment starting in early Q2 2020.
SiTime’s Endura series of high reliability, ruggedised oscillators will be available for 48-hour shipment in late 2020.
The company offers millions of configurations, in many different oscillator categories, all configured for a customer’s specific requirements in an effort to accelerate industrial and IoT customers’ design time, through reduced development efforts for a fast time to market. Among the most popular programmable options are frequency (with up to six decimal places of accuracy), supply voltage, output drive type and drive strength, operating temperature range, and frequency stability.
The 48 hours availability is a dramatic reduction from up to 20 weeks that customers had to wait – sometime incurring NRE fees for oscillators that were configured to exact requirements. Now, SiTime’s programmable MEMS oscillator architecture, and a global support network of distributors and channel partners, are transforming the availability and choice, with 48-hour availability for samples and low-volume production quantities.
“SiTime’s customisable, highly-integrated MEMS technology, combined with Digi-Key’s ability to process an order within 48 hours and seamlessly ship globally, will enable faster time-to-market,” commented David Stein, vice president of global supplier management at Digi-Key Electronics.
“We are excited about our new value-add partnership with SiTime Corporation and the ability to offer custom programmed MEMS timing solutions to our customers worldwide,” he added.
“With the introduction of programming services for SiTime’s MEMS timing solutions in the EMEA market . . . “We are able to offer the desired frequency, accuracy and temperature range with prompt lead times of just 48 hours, a flexibility benefit that is just not available from traditional quartz suppliers,” said Christopher Wuttke, chief executive officer of SE-Spezial.
“Fast, efficient delivery of oscillators has been the Achilles heel of the quartz industry for decades,” said Piyush Sevalia, executive vice president of marketing at SiTime. “With 48-hour lead time for our MEMS timing solutions, SiTime is once again transforming the timing market,” he said.
