Introduction

TI Bulk Acoustic Wave (BAW) oscillator portfolio has device families targeted for high-performance (LMK6x) as well as low power applications (CDC6C), see CDC6Cx Low Power LVCMOS Output BAW Oscillator, data sheet. Both BAW oscillator families support any frequency up to 200MHz in single ended variants. This document showcases BAW oscillator advantages over Quartz oscillators, performance advantages of clocking TI processors such as the AM64x using BAW oscillators, as well as BAW oscillator clock recommendation for various TI processors.
