A crystal oscillator is a timing device that consists of a crystal and an oscillator circuit, providing an output waveform at a specific frequency. When a crystal is placed into an amplifier circuit ...

This application note presents the need to use an external Pierce oscillator to replace the RTC oscillator circuit that makes EP93xx susceptible to on-chip noises. It describes the implementation of ...

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

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 ...

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 ...

The tool generates a sample schematic, although [Craig] deleted it and put his own design into the simulator. By running simulations, he was able to look at the oscillator’s performance. His first cut ...

The evolution of precision clocks. The tradeoffs between MEMS vs. crystal oscillators. The manufacture and cost issues involved. Almost every electronic device you can imagine depends on a precision ...

At the IEEE International Solid State Circuits Conference in San Francisco earlier this year, Texas Instruments revealed details of its on-chip bulk acoustic wave oscillator technology, that can ...

Like many people who repair stuff, [Learn Electronics Repair] has an oscilloscope. But after using it to test a motherboard crystal oscillator, he started thinking about how people who don’t own a ...
