Solid Engineering and Manufacturing Enable SiTime to Surpass Major MEMS Production 100,000/week Milestone
SiTime Corporation, the world’s leading innovator of MEMS-based timing solutions, today announced that their SiT8002 and SiT1 oscillator families are shipping at a production rate of more than 100,000 units per week, making these products the top-selling MEMS-based oscillators worldwide. This milestone represents the start of a new silicon MEMS industry that stands poised to replace a substantial portion of the 10 billion quartz-based oscillators produced annually.
“Shipping fully qualified MEMS-based oscillators in high volume is a major milestone in the electronics industry,” said Kurt Petersen, CEO of SiTime. “Reaching this milestone is a great accomplishment that validates SiTime’s technology and could not have been achieved without the outstanding people we have at SiTime.”
The SiT8002 is the world’s smallest programmable oscillator, which allows for fast-turn prototyping, and can be programmed to any frequency between 1 MHz and 125 MHz. The SiT1 fixed frequency oscillators are available in 173 common frequencies and are a low cost solution for high volume customers. Both oscillator products are offered in four package sizes down to 2.5 x 2.0 mm, and are highly reliable, mechanically robust, and low cost compared to competitive quartz solutions.
SiTime is grateful for the support of its key development partners and suppliers: Jazz Semiconductor (Newport, CA), TSMC (Hsinchu, Taiwan), Carsem (Ipoh, Malaysia) and Ecliptek (Costa Mesa, CA).
SiTime Launches Online Store
SiTime Corporation, the world’s leading innovator of MEMS-based timing solutions, has announced the launch of their new online store, SiTime Direct™.
With a structured, well designed, and easily navigable platform, the new online store offers customers the opportunity to buy SiTime’s range of mechanically robust programmable and fixed frequency oscillator products directly over the Internet.
SiTime Direct™ may be accessed directly by going to www.sitime.com/products, or alternatively through the SiTime corporate website, www.sitime.com, which will continue to provide company news, product updates, and customer support.
John McDonald, VP of Marketing and Sales at SiTime, said "We hope our customers find SiTime’s online purchasing experience a quick, secure, and efficient way to buy our products through the World Wide Web. SiTime Direct™ enables customers both small and large to order MEMS-based silicon oscillator products at an extremely competitive price compared to quartz.”
