Hmm.. actually there's no "programmable crystal" written on the surface of the part.. It was on the container, it was part of image grabber from dipix.. this's written on surface of the part : ----------------- | F6053A 9606| | .360-120MHZ | | | | * FOX | ----------------- I've try http://www.fox.com , but surrely it's not contain what I excpected.. Anybody can help?

The web site doesn't have detailed data, but I was able to get them to fax it to me. There is a PC program for computing the bits to program it, but I have not gotten it. Fox claims the F6053A is discontinued and has no replacement, which is a shame because it is a really nice part. Eric

Someplace, I have the demo board and software for this. Rep gave it to me a while back. If anyone in the states is intererested in aquiring this, let me know (by private mail) ---------- From: Eric Smith [SMTP:ericspam_OUTBROUHAHA.COM] Sent: Sunday, April 19, 1998 9:23 PM To: @spam@PICLISTKILLspamMITVMA.MIT.EDU Subject: Re: Programmable Crystal Oscilator Ari Wahyudi <KILLspamariKILLspamELKA93.EE.ITB.AC.ID> wrote: > Hmm.. actually there's no "programmable crystal" written on the surface > of the part..

OK, That's an oscillator from Fox Electronics. It is available with an internal eeprom programmed to the frequency you want or can be programmed "on the fly" through a serial port. As I recall, it's actually a PLL frequency synthesizer in a DIP package. Really pretty neat. However, I've recently been a bit more impressed with the direct digital synthesis (or numerically controller oscillator) chip available from someone (Analog Devices, mayne... I have a sample at work).

The Icd2053 is the IC used in the fox part and it's available much cheaper than the Fox part. We use both parts in several of our products. The Cypress part costs about $4. They can be programmed to go from 360KHz to over 120MHz. Rick Sherman KM6TI rickEraseME.....vcc.com
