The recommended operating temperature range for the FE245F-20 is -40°C to +85°C, as specified in the datasheet. However, it's essential to note that the device can operate up to +125°C for short-term exposure, but this may affect its long-term reliability.
To ensure reliable startup, Fox Electronics recommends applying a power-up ramp of 10 ms or slower to the VDD pin. This allows the internal circuitry to stabilize and ensures the oscillator starts up correctly.
The typical current consumption of the FE245F-20 is around 10 mA, but this can vary depending on the specific application, operating frequency, and output load. It's essential to check the datasheet for specific current consumption values at different frequencies.
Yes, the FE245F-20 can be used as a clock source for multiple devices. However, it's crucial to ensure that the output load capacitance and impedance are within the recommended specifications to maintain signal integrity and prevent signal degradation.
The output frequency of the FE245F-20 can be adjusted by modifying the external crystal resonator or by using an external frequency adjustment pin (if available). Consult the datasheet or contact Fox Electronics for specific guidance on frequency adjustment.
