Product details
Overview
LTC6930IDCB-5.00#TRPBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a digitally controlled silicon oscillator with factory-set 5.000000MHz master frequency, selectable via DIVA/DIVB/DIVC pins across eight output frequencies from 39.0625kHz to 5.000MHz. It delivers ±0.1% frequency accuracy over –40°C to 85°C, 105µA typical supply current at 32kHz/3V, and <110µs start-up time. It serves as a precision clock source in battery-powered microcontroller systems requiring low power and high stability.
For engineers reviewing the LTC6930IDCB-5.00#TRPBF datasheet, LTC6930IDCB-5.00#TRPBF pinout, LTC6930IDCB-5.00#TRPBF application, or LTC6930IDCB-5.00#TRPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include initial frequency error (<0.09% at 25°C), RMS period jitter (<0.15% at 3V), supply voltage range (1.7V–5.5V), operating temperature grade (–40°C to 85°C), and DFN-8 package compatibility with space-constrained PCB layouts.
Technical Context
The LTC6930IDCB-5.00#TRPBF implements a proprietary switched-capacitor feedback loop to stabilize its internal 5.000000MHz master oscillator against temperature and supply variation. Its digital control architecture uses three CMOS input pins (DIVA/DIVB/DIVC) to select binary division ratios (1–128) for generating eight precise output frequencies.
It features dual V+ pins (Pins 1 and 8) and dual GND pins (Pins 2 and 6) to isolate oscillator output switching noise from the control loop. The output driver provides <40Ω series resistance at 3V, 2ns rise/fall times, and supports up to 50pF capacitive or 1kΩ resistive loads without external components beyond 0.1µF bypass capacitors.

FAQ
What is the maximum output frequency achievable with LTC6930IDCB-5.00#TRPBF?
The LTC6930IDCB-5.00#TRPBF has a factory-set master oscillator frequency of 5.000000MHz. When the DIVA/DIVB/DIVC pins are configured as [000], the output frequency is 5.000MHz (÷1). This is the maximum output frequency supported by this variant. Higher frequencies are not available, as the master oscillator is fixed and no multiplication is implemented.
Does LTC6930IDCB-5.00#TRPBF require external load capacitors like quartz crystals?
No, the LTC6930IDCB-5.00#TRPBF is a fully integrated silicon oscillator and requires no external load capacitors. Only 0.1µF ceramic bypass capacitors between each V+ pin and its adjacent GND pin are needed. This eliminates crystal matching uncertainty and simplifies layout compared to traditional crystal-based solutions.
Can LTC6930IDCB-5.00#TRPBF operate from a single 1.8V alkaline cell?
Yes, the LTC6930IDCB-5.00#TRPBF operates over a supply range of 1.7V to 5.5V. At 1.8V, it delivers functional output across all DIV settings, with supply current scaling accordingly (e.g., ~95µA typical at 5MHz/1.8V). This enables direct use with aging alkaline cells down to end-of-life voltage.
What is the meaning of the "I" grade in LTC6930IDCB-5.00#TRPBF?
The "I" in LTC6930IDCB-5.00#TRPBF denotes the industrial temperature grade, guaranteeing full electrical specifications over –40°C to +85°C. This differs from the "C" (commercial, 0°C to 70°C) and "H" (high-temp, –40°C to 125°C) grades, making it suitable for demanding industrial and automotive under-hood environments.
How does the exposed pad (Pin 9) on the DFN package affect thermal performance?
The exposed pad (Pin 9) on the LTC6930IDCB-5.00#TRPBF DFN package must be soldered to a PCB GND plane. This connection reduces thermal resistance (θJA = 64°C/W), improves heat dissipation during sustained high-frequency operation, and lowers ground impedance-critical for maintaining low jitter and stable frequency accuracy.
