ACAL Technology has launched a fast delivery service on Advanced Crystal Technology's (ACT) ACT9300PR clock oscillators. The reduced lead-time of 2-4 weeks substantially reduces typical fixed oscillator lead-times. ACAL has an extensive inventory of blank oscillators, which are factory-programmed to exact customer specifications, cutting time-to-market and cost targets. To accelerate the transition through design and prototyping to full production, ACAL is to provide specialist support during development, using its UK in-house testing services for frequency-control devices. These services include the testing of crystal and oscillator parameters and characteristics, shock and solderability testing, as well as high-temperature storage. The inventory of unprogrammed devices covers a wide range of voltages, operating temperature ranges of 0 to 70, or -40 to +85°C and stability of ±50ppm or ±100ppm.
