San Jose, CA, 2006-03-27 - Pericom Semiconductor Corporation
(NASDAQ: PSEM), a worldwide preferred supplier of both silicon-based
clock integrated circuits and quartz-based frequency control
products
(FCP), is announcing the launch of a Precision Audio Synthesizer and
a 27MHz VCXO that pair up to offer customers a digital
multimedia timing
solution for fast-growing markets like Set-top Box, DTV, and Portable
Media Players.
“PI6C6612 is a
precision clock generator designed to provide
low jitter, low phase noise, and synchronous clock signals for digital
audio applications
with flexible sampling clock rates derived from
a MPEG2 stream. PI6CX100-272 is a low-cost, high-performance, 3.3V,
27MHz VCXO
IC commonly used to drive the clocking for the MPEG2 decoder
within digital Set-top Box and Television systems,” said Kay
Annamalai, Senior Clock Marketing Director. “Customers benefit
from Pericom being a single source for both FCP and Clock IC
needs,
and our SRX7177-E crystal is recommended to go with the PI6CX100-272
VCXO, while the 49SMLB27.0000 crystal can be
used along with the PI6C6612
audio clock synthesizer,” Annamalai continued.
Pericom is industry unique in that the
Company is able to offer customers
a ‘Total Timing Solution’ by offering comprehensive portfolios
of not only
silicon-based clock ICs like clock buffers and generators,
but also quartz-based Frequency Control Products (FCP) like crystals
and
oscillators. This broad and synergistic portfolio mix provides
customers with improved performance products at a lower cost.
Availability and Pricing:
Samples, datasheets, application note, IBIS, and application support
can be
found by visiting the company website at www.pericom.com/timing.
These products are in full
production today. Pricing ranges from
$1.25 for the PI6C6612 (Clock Generator), to $0.40 for the PI6CX100-272
(VCXO) in 1,000
