Silicon Oscillator with Low-Power
Frequency Switching
General Description
The MAX7377 dual-speed silicon oscillator with reset is
a replacement for ceramic resonators, crystals, crystal
oscillator modules, and discrete reset circuits. The
device provides the primary and secondary clock
source for microcontrollers in 3V, 3.3V, and 5V applica-
tions. The MAX7377 features a factory-programmed
high-speed oscillator, a 32.768kHz oscillator, and a
clock selector input. The clock output can be switched
at any time between the high-speed clock and the
32.768kHz clock for low-power operation. Switchover is
synchronized internally to provide glitch-free clock
switching.
Unlike typical crystal and ceramic resonator oscillator
circuits, the MAX7377 is resistant to vibration and EMI.
The high-output-drive current and absence of high-
impedance nodes make the oscillator less susceptible
to dirty or humid operating conditions. With a wide
operating temperature range as standard, the MAX7377
is a good choice for demanding home appliance,
industrial, and automotive environments.
The MAX7377 is available in factory-programmed fre-
quencies from 32.768kHz to 10MHz. See Table 1 for
standard frequencies and contact the factory for cus-
tom frequencies.
The MAX7377 is available in a 5-pin SOT23 package.
Refer to the MAX7383 data sheet for frequencies
≥10MHz.
The MAX7377 standard operating tempera-
ture range is -40°C to +125°C. See the
Applications
Information
section for the extended operating temper-
ature range.

Stresses beyond those listed under “Absolute Maximum Ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only, and functional
operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated in the operational sections of the specifications is not implied. Exposure to
absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
