Abstract: Quartz crystals are mechanical resonators with piezoelectric properties. The piezoelectric properties (electric potential across the crystal is proportional to mechanical deformation) allow ...

This tutorial explains the primary design considerations to be addressed in a design of a simple crystal oscillator using AT-cut crystals. The basic qualities of a crystal oscillator and factors that ...

Crystal oscillators are fundamental components in modern electronic systems, providing the precise timing necessary for communication, computation, and sensor network operations. Recent advances in ...

The EMXO is smaller than other components, uses less power, and offers other advantages for designers trying to meet the tough demands of space systems. Why EMXOs, though less well known than OCXOs, ...

Modern technology relies heavily on accurate timing as its fundamental basis, so that items of electronics all have coordinated functions. This applies across a wide range of industry sectors and, ...

Said to consume 10 times less power than comparable circuits, the EM7604 CMOS crystal oscillator is intended for use with a 32.768 kHz tuning fork crystal as a low-frequency clock oscillator with no ...

Texas Instruments has removed the need for external timing crystals by developing a technique for building high-grade thin film piezoelectric bulk acoustic wave (BAW) resonators within the ...
