SemiBlocks showcases their revolutionary SCXO timing module for 5G, atomic clocks and Positioning, Navigation & Timing (PNT) at The Netherlands Pavilion during MWC Barcelona 2026. Rotterdam-based technology company SemiBlocks redefines oscillator precision and stability with their groundbreaking Smart-Xtal®️ technology powered SCXO.
The State Controlled Crystal Oscillator (SCXO) actively measures and compensates for stress, vibration and temperature variations without requiring an oven, temperature sensor or vibration dampening. The result: superior frequency stability, 67% lower power consumption, 90% faster start-up time, and a very small footprint. This makes it ideal for high-precision applications in telecommunications, navigation, and aerospace systems.
Revolutionizing precision without an oven or special mounting
SemiBlocks’ State Controlled Crystal Oscillator (SCXO) integrates a proprietary chip that actively measures and compensates for stress and temperature variations, entirely without the need for an oven or external sensor or external dampening. This innovation also doesn’t need additional packaging for ruggedizing. Eliminating the external timing box, the SCXO can be integrated directly into the radio cassette.
This innovation delivers lower power consumption, faster start-up, and superior frequency stability across wider temperature ranges whilst resistant against vibrations: real world conditions. The result: a smaller, lighter, and more energy-efficient oscillator ideal for high-precision timing in telecommunications, navigation, and aerospace systems.
