SiTime Corporation
Cytime Corporation
SiTime, which deals with MEMS oscillators and clock generators, has achieved remarkable growth in recent years. (Annual sales growth rate 50-100%)
It was also listed on NASDAQ, and in 2021 it recorded the world's No. 1 sales in the field of oscillators.
We are developing MEMS oscillators optimized for customers using MEMS resonators made from single crystal silicon and high-performance analog CMOS ICs.
MEMS oscillators are characterized by high reliability and frequency stability surpassing crystal oscillators, superiority in small size, and high scalability for mass production.

MEMS Oscillators (Why They're the Best Replacement for Quartz Oscillators)
A MEMS oscillator consists of a MEMS resonator made from single crystal silicon and a highly accurate analog oscillation circuit.
It is designed to solve the issues that crystal oscillators face, such as reliability, lead time, and EMI.
・All products are programmable → Specifications can be written according to customer's wishes
・ Many compatible products → Crystal oscillators can be replaced without "redesign or changes to the board layout"
・ Supports not only single-ended but also "differential output"
Crystal oscillators are highly dependent on a specific supply chain for their oscillator circuits and ceramic packages.
SiTime's MEMS oscillators are the perfect lineup for a multi-source solution in case of emergency.

Clock generator/clock buffer
We can provide clock generators with built-in high-performance MEMS resonators.
It is not affected by the performance and variations of conventional external crystal units.
This product is ideal for communication infrastructure, commercial broadcasting equipment, office automation equipment, measuring devices, etc.
We have a lineup of 4 inputs/10 outputs, and plan to continue expanding with new series.
Jitter Cleaner and Network Synchronizer are also compliant with various communication standards such as:
We also offer clock buffer products that can be used for multiple channel output (SE or differential) and PCIe applications.
