20 CONNECTED ELECTRONICS www.sitime.com Issue 3 2024 Power Electronics Europe www.power-mag.com technology, ensuring nanosecond accuracy in critical network infrastructure. With its exceptional stability, longer holdover, high reliability, and low power consumption, the Epoch Platform is poised to revolutionize the world of precision timing, making it an indispensable technology for today’s intelligent, connected electronics. MEMS has 10x the resilience to temperature variations compared to traditional quartz resonators, while also eliminating activity dips. The ultra-small MEMS resonator, with its extremely low mass, mitigates the effects of g-force, resulting in 30x better vibration immunity than quartz. Pairing innovative MEMS technology with SiTime’s advanced analog circuitry results in exceptional dynamic stability, ultra-low phase noise, and a broad frequency range. Epoch Platform OCXOs enable 12 hours of holdover, support any frequency between 10 and 220 MHz, are programmable up to six decimal places of accuracy, and offer digital control with I2C and SPI interfaces for unparalleled flexibility. Designed for low power consumption, these MEMS-based OCXOs consume just 420 mW, 3x less than quartz devices. The Epoch Platform’s small footprint (9 mm x 7 mm x 3.73 mm) occupies 9x less area and is 3x times thinner than comparable quartz-based timing solutions, enabling a greater degree of freedom for hardware designers. SiTime’s Epoch Platform is setting new standards in MEMS-based precision timing Direct
