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 applications. 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 highimpedance 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 frequencies from 32.768kHz to 10MHz. See Table 1 for
standard frequencies and contact the factory for custom frequencies.
The MAX7377 is available in a 5-pin SOT23 package.
Refer to the MAX7383 data sheet for frequencies
≥10MHz. The MAX7377 standard operating temperature range is -40°C to +125°C. See the Applications
Information section for the extended operating temperature range.

Detailed Description
The MAX7377 is a dual-speed clock generator for
microcontrollers (µCs) and UARTs in 3V, 3.3V, and 5V
applications. (Figure 1). The MAX7377 is a replacement
for two crystal oscillator modules, crystals, or ceramic
resonators. The high-speed clock frequency is factory
trimmed to specific values. A variety of popular standard frequencies are available. The low-speed clock
frequency is fixed at 32.768kHz (Table 1). No external
components are required for setting or adjusting the
frequency.
Supply Voltage
The MAX7377 has been designed for use in systems
with nominal supply voltages of 3V, 3.3V, or 5V and is
specified for operation with supply voltages in the 2.7V
to 5.5V range. See the Absolute Maximum Ratings section for limit values of power-supply and pin voltages.
Oscillator
The clock output is a push-pull configuration and is
capable of driving a ground-connected 500Ω or a positive-supply-connected 250Ω load to within 400mV of
either supply rail. The clock output remains stable over
the full operating voltage range and does not generate
short output cycles when switching between high- and
low-speed modes. A typical startup characteristic is
shown in the Typical Operating Characteristics.
Clock-Speed Select Input
The MAX7377 uses a logic input pin, SPEED, to set
clock speed. Take this pin low to select slow clock
speed (nominally 32.768kHz) or high to select full clock
speed. The SPEED input can be strapped to VCCor to
GND to select fast or slow clock speed, or connected
to a logic output (such as a processor port) used to
change clock speed on the fly. If the SPEED input is
connected to a processor port that powers up in the

input condition, connect a pullup or pulldown resistor to
the SPEED input to set the clock to the preferred speed
on power-up. The leakage current through the resistor
into the SPEED input is very low, so a resistor value as
high as 500kΩ may be used.
Applications Information
Interfacing to a Microcontroller
Clock Input
The MAX7377 clock output is a push-pull, CMOS, logic
output that directly drives any microprocessor (µP) or
µC clock input. There are no impedance-matching
issues when using the MAX7377. The MAX7377 is not
sensitive to its position on the board and does not need
to be placed right next to the µP. Refer to the microcontroller data sheet for clock-input compatibility with external clock signals. The MAX7377 requires no biasing
components or load capacitance. When using the
MAX7377 to retrofit a crystal oscillator, remove all biasing components from the oscillator input.
Output Jitter
The MAX7377’s jitter performance is given in the
Electrical Characteristics table as a peak-to-peak value
obtained by observing the output of the MAX7377 for
20s with a 500MHz oscilloscope. Jitter values are
approximately proportional to the period of the output
frequency of the device. Thus, a 4MHz part has
approximately twice the jitter value of an 8MHz part.
The jitter performance of clock sources degrades in the
presence of mechanical and electrical interference.
The MAX7377 is relatively immune to vibration, shock,
and EMI influences, and thus provides a considerably
more robust clock source than crystal or ceramic resonator-based oscillator circuits.
Initial Power-Up and Operation
An internal power-up reset disables the oscillator until
VCChas risen above 2.2V. The clock then starts up
within 30µs (typ) at the frequency determined by the
SPEED pin.
Extended Temperature Operation
The MAX7377 was tested to +135°C during product
characterization and shown to function normally at
this temperature (see the Typical Operating
Characteristics). However, production test and qualification is only performed from -40°C to +125°C at this
time. Contact the factory if operation outside this range
is required.
Power-Supply Considerations
The MAX7377 operates with a 2.7V and 5.5V powersupply voltage. Good power-supply decoupling is
needed to maintain the power-supply rejection performance of the MAX7377. Bypass VCCto GND with a
0.1µF surface-mount ceramic capacitor. Mount the
bypass capacitor as close to the device as possible. If
possible, mount the MAX7377 close to the microcontroller’s decoupling capacitor so that additional decoupling is not required. A larger value bypass capacitor is
recommended if the MAX7377 is to operate with a large
capacitive load. Use a bypass capacitor value of at
least 1000 times that of the output load capacitance.
