Crystal Oscillator Inside. The oscillator is switched on and off through a key shaping circuit q2 to make it start and stop gently. This prevents clicks from being transmitted.
Inside of every quartz oscillator is something called a crystal blank. The oscillator is switched on and off through a key shaping circuit q2 to make it start and stop gently. This prevents clicks from being transmitted.
A quartz crystal inside the oscillator is the resonator.
Inside a modern dip package quartz crystal oscillator module it includes a ceramic pcb base oscillator divider chip 8 bypass capacitor and an at cut crystal. The crystal oscillator is a crystal connected to a feedback amplifier inside the same can that oscillates at the crystal s resonant frequency when connected to a suitable supply voltage. The crystal blank is the resonating element of the oscillator that when subjected to a voltage potential will begin to vibrate and oscillate at it s fundamental frequency. Includes a revisit of the bypass capacitor.
