Crystals are the fundamental building block of electronic oscillator circuits that create an electrical signal with precise frequency. This frequency is often used to provide a stable clock signal for digital integrated circuits and to stabilize frequencies for radio transmitters and receivers. It’s important to be aware of a variety of technical specifications when selecting the best MHz crystal for your design. This webinar will cover these specifications and more:
- Crystal frequency, frequency tolerance, stability, and aging
- Load capacitance (CL)
- Equivalent series resistance (ESR)
- Drive level (DL)
- Operating temperature
