Oscillator and Attenuator Families Keep Systems from the Jitters

Mixed-Signal Devices (MSD), in Booth #361 at IMS 2025, will debut two new device families: the MS11X0 oscillators and MS15X0 jitter attenuators. Both are designed to meet the needs of complex, high-speed computing and communications systems by providing multi-gigahertz performance, femtosecond-level jitter, low phase noise, and high thermal stability. They do so without compromising programmability or power efficiency, it’s claimed.
The MS1130 1-GHz and MS1150 2-GHz oscillators deliver jitter as low as 19 fs RMS, ±20-ppm thermal stability, and programmable configuration in compact CMOS packages. The MS1130 is optimized for high-frequency applications such as 800G networking and AI compute fabrics, while the MS1150 is purpose-built to handle ultra-low jitter system clocks and timing cleanup in complex architectures.
Similarly high performance is found in the MS1500 1-GHz and MS1510 2-GHz jitter attenuators, which are built for high-speed networking and data infrastructure. In addition to very low jitter, they offer exceptional power-supply noise rejection and robust thermal resilience.
The MS1500 supports up to 1-GHz output, suited for PCIe and Ethernet clock cleanup, while the MS1510 targets coherent optics, SerDes links, and advanced AI platforms. These jitter attenuators simplify clock-tree architectures and enable cleaner signal performance across increasingly complex platforms.
