Oscillators for Space & New Space Applications
AXTAL offers a wide variety of crystal oscillators and filters for Space application and
together with our parent company Q-Tech Corporation we have a joint portfolio, which
makes us the single source for all crystal oscillator types (XO, VCXO, TCXO, OCXO
and the unique MCXO). You can find a full overview of our capabilities and products in
the following presentations and brochures:
AXTAL's New Space oscillator series is fully radiation tested (TID & SEE) and we can
provide radiation test reports and analysis. Find more information in our detail datasheets
and in the documents listed above.
Because New Space includes such a wide variety of applications with very different and
often unique mission requirements, AXTAL offers full customization for all New Space
products. Please consult factory and see also our Space Presentation.

Important Note: Our OCXO AXIOM6060 is listed in the ESA European Preferred Products List (EPPL).
The Unique MCXO
Q-Tech offers The unique MCXO (Microcomputer Compensated Crystal Oscillator)
There is no product like this out there and it has the following exceptional feautures:

- OCXO stability in the low ppb range
- Max. power consumption of 90 mW
- Fast start-up time <30 seconds to full performance
- Low phase noise & jitter
- Small form factor
- Radiation hardened: 50 kRad (TID)
- Radiation hardened: SEL immune <75 MeV
- And many more
With currently three different models QT2010, QT2020 and QT2021 several options
can be offered to best fit the Space application. To learn more contact AXTAL or Q-Tech.
