Vishay Extends XOSM Surface-Mount Clock Oscillator Family With New Devices Rated for 1.8-V and 2.5-V Input Voltages in 7.0-mm by 5.0-mm by 1.6-mm Package



MALVERN, PENNSYLVANIA December 17, 2004 - Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. (NYSE: VSH) today announced the addition of two miniature, low-voltage, surface-mount oscillators - rated for 1.8-V and 2.5-V input voltages - to the company's XOSM family of clock oscillators.

Intended to enable design of better-performing, longer-running battery-powered electronic devices, the new devices occupy the same small footprint as a standard 5x7 oscillator while providing low-voltage options that improve performance of clock oscillator circuits in portable computing and telecommunications equipment such as notebook computers, cell phones, pagers, and PDAs.

The new XOSM-571 (1.8 V) and XOSM-572 (2.5 V) serve as lower-voltage alternatives to Vishay's standard XOSM-57 (5 V) and XOSM-573 (3.3 V) surface-mount oscillators. Both the XOSM-571 and XOSM-572 feature very small dimensions of 0.275 in. by 0.197 in. by 0.63 in. [7.0 mm by 5.0 mm by 1.6 mm], and each package offers a tri-state enable/disable function that contributes to efficient operation. With lower input voltage ratings, these devices also reduce heat dissipation and thereby improve system reliability.

The devices released today by Vishay Dale offer a frequency range of 1 MHz to 100 MHz with frequency stability options of ±25 ppm, ±50 ppm, and ±100 ppm. Typical aging for the first year is ±5 ppm. The new oscillators, which are HCMOS-compatible and compatible with IR re-flow processes, are available in tape-and-reel packaging. All devices in the XOSM family of clock oscillators are lead (Pb)-free.

Samples and production quantities of the XOSM-571 and XOSM-572 are available now. Lead time for production quantities is eight weeks.

Vishay, a Fortune 1,000 Company listed on the NYSE, is one of the world's largest manufacturers of discrete semiconductors (diodes, rectifiers, transistors, optoelectronics, and selected ICs) and passive electronic components (resistors, capacitors, inductors, and transducers). The Company's components can be found in products manufactured in a very broad range of industries worldwide. Vishay is headquartered in Malvern, Pennsylvania, and has operations in 17 countries employing over 26,000 people. Vishay can be found on the Internet at www.vishay.com.
