OCXO and precision clocks

Oven-controlled stability, sold and supported in Israel.

Oven-controlled crystal oscillators and atomic-grade miniature clocks for GNSS, radar, communication, test and seismic systems. We specify them with you, sell them directly and look after the documentation, so your team deals with one Israeli supplier.

What an OCXO does for your design

Every quartz crystal drifts with temperature. An oven-controlled crystal oscillator (OCXO) holds its crystal at a constant temperature above the ambient range, so frequency stability moves from the parts per million of a TCXO into the parts per billion range, with the low phase noise and slow aging that GNSS receivers, radar, secure communication links, test equipment and seismic instruments depend on.

The traditional price is size, power and warm-up time: a conventional OCXO heats the whole package and can draw watts. The clocks in our spotlight heat only the resonator itself, which brings atomic-grade stability into a crystal-sized package at a fraction of the power and makes oven-controlled performance practical in battery-powered and portable equipment.

Why buy through Artec Lantec

  • Sold directly in Israel: one supplier, one invoice and one point of contact for quotes, samples, documentation and support
  • Design-in help from an engineer who knows the whole frequency control range, so an OCXO is compared with crystal, TCXO and atomic clock alternatives before you commit
  • Second sources and alternates from the other timing lines we represent when supply or qualification pressure rises
  • Follow-through from prototype quantities to production schedules, with the paperwork handled on our side

How to specify an OCXO

  • Nominal frequency and output type: sine, CMOS or 1PPS
  • Stability over the operating temperature range
  • Aging per day and per month, and any holdover requirement
  • Phase noise at 1 Hz offset and the noise floor
  • Allan deviation at 1 s for short-term stability
  • g-sensitivity for mobile, marine and airborne platforms
  • Power budget at 25 °C and over temperature, plus warm-up time
  • Package: through-hole, surface-mount, low profile or shock resistant
  • Frequency control: analog, I2C or RS-232

Product spotlight

Atomic-grade clocks and low power OCXOs.

Two product families we sell directly in Israel, with their features, applications and datasheets.

Product spotlight · Precision timing

Atomic-grade timing, crystal‑sized.

Oven-controlled stability in packages a fraction of the size and power of conventional OCXOs, built around an internally heated resonator. Artec Lantec sells and supports these clocks directly in Israel: one local point of contact for quotes, samples, documentation and engineering support, from the first prototype to production.
