How to choose the fixed frequency oscillator or a programmable MEMS oscillator

2025-04-25

How to choose the fixed frequency oscillator or a programmable MEMS oscillator?

Many customers feedback that MEMS oscillator is much more expensive than quartz oscillator, the price is too high.

So today let's analyse the difference between MEMS oscillator and quartz oscillator,

to understand why MEMS oscillator is so expensive, in the end it is worth it!

MEMS OSC Advantage-Quality,Electrical characteristics
ITEMS	MEMS OSC	QUARTZ OSC
Customer counter-repair rate (dppm)	<1.6ppm	100-300dppm
Qulity problems	0 Defective rate 270KK Shipped Quantity	It is not easy to control the quality for large QTY 1.Defective is caused by pollution during sealing process 2.Defective is caused by not so well airtightness 3. Defective in Temperature characteristic deviation caused during cutting crytal
1 year aging rate	<2ppm	3-5ppm
10 year aging rate	<3ppm	10-15ppm
Anti-EMS interference	50 times better than quartz osc	Different from based on different IC SAW OSC-Poor high and low temperature characteristics 3rd Overtone OSC-signal quality easily be interrupted by external noise
Anti-supply noise	10 times better than quartz osc
Anti-vibration	30 times better than quartz osc	not so mall in anti-vibration and anti-drop
Size and signal, quality	Same chip, No impact on signal quality	The smaller the size, the more difficult to manufacture and the higher cost High frequency+small size, quality is not easy to control
