Silicon Oscillator with Low-Power Frequency
Switching and Reset Output
General Description
Features
The MAX7384 dual-speed silicon oscillator replaces
ceramic resonators, crystals, and crystal-oscillator
modules as the primary and secondary clock source for
microcontrollers in 3V, 3.3V, and 5V applications. The
MAX7384 features a factory-programmed high-speed
oscillator, a 32.768kHz oscillator, a clock-selector input,
and a µP power-on-reset (POR) supervisor. The clock
output can be switched at any time between the high-
speed clock and the 32.768kHz clock for low-power
operation. Switchover is synchronized internally to pro-
vide glitch-free clock switching.
♦ 2.7V to 5.5V Operation
♦ High-Speed Oscillator from 10MHz to 16MHz
Low-Speed 32kHz Oscillator
Glitch-Free Clock-Speed Switching
♦ Integrated POR
♦ ±10mA Clock-Output Drive Capability
♦ 2.5% Initial Accuracy
♦ ±50ppm/°C Frequency Drift
♦ 50% Duty Cycle
♦ 5ns Output Rise and Fall Time
Unlike typical crystal and ceramic-resonator oscillator
circuits, the MAX7384 is resistant to vibration and EMI.
The high-output-drive current and absence of high-
impedance nodes makes the oscillator less susceptible
to dirty or humid operating conditions. With a wide oper-
ating temperature range as standard, the MAX7384 is a
good choice for demanding home appliance, industrial,
and automotive environments.
