The **MHO+48FBG-R** is a high-performance, precision Crystal Oscillator (XO). It is commonly used in telecommunications, networking, and industrial applications where stable clock signals are required. ### 1. General Specifications The following table summarizes the primary electrical and physical characteristics of this component: | Feature | Specification | | :--- | :--- | | **Part Series** | MHO+ Series | | **Package Type** | 14-pin DIP (DIL) - Often 4-pin active | | **Output Type** | HCMOS / TTL Compatible | | **Frequency Range** | Typically 1.000 MHz to 100.000 MHz | | **Supply Voltage ($V_{DD}$)** | +5.0V DC (standard for this series) | | **Operating Temp** | -40°C to +85°C (Industrial Grade) | | **Stability** | ±100ppm to ±25ppm (depending on suffix) | --- ### 2. Part Number Breakdown The alphanumeric code "MHO+48FBG-R" can be decrypted to understand its specific tolerances and features: * **MHO+**: Refers to the series (High-speed CMOS/TTL, 5.0V operation). * **4**: Indicates the stability (likely ±50ppm or ±100ppm depending on the specific manufacturer's revision). * **8**: Denotes the temperature range (8 usually signifies the extended industrial range: -40°C to +85°C). * **FBG**: Refers to the frequency stability and internal configuration (Full-size DIP, 4-pin). * **-R**: Indicates **RoHS Compliance** (Lead-free construction). --- ### 3. Pin Configuration (Internal Mapping) Though the housing looks like a standard 14-pin integrated circuit, most MHO+ series oscillators only utilize 4 pins: | Pin Number | Function | Description | | :--- | :--- | :--- | | **Pin 1** | NC / E/D | No Connect or Enable/Disable (Tristate) | | **Pin 7** | GND | Case and Circuit Ground | | **Pin 8** | Output | The generated clock signal (Square Wave) | | **Pin 14** | $V_{DD}$ | Power Supply (+5.0V) | --- ### 4. Key Electronic Characteristics * **Rise and Fall Time:** Usually < 6ns, ensuring sharp clock edges for high-speed digital logic. * **Duty Cycle:** Generally 40/60% to 45/55%, providing a balanced signal for flip-flops and microprocessors. * **Fanout:** Typically capable of driving up to 10 TTL loads or 15pF to 50pF CMOS loads. * **Current Consumption:** Ranges from 20mA to 45mA depending on the output frequency. --- ### 5. Common Applications 1. **Microprocessor Clocks:** Providing the base timing for CPUs and MCUs. 2. **Network Hardware:** Used in switches and routers to sync data packets. 3. **Industrial Controllers:** Timing for PLCs and automated machinery. 4. **Legacy Systems:** Often used as a drop-in replacement for older 14-pin DIP oscillators in vintage electronics. ---
