Oscillators

Oscillators are devices which produce an output that oscillates or changes between at least two discrete levels at a predetermined frequency and with a regular period. There are many different types of oscillators, which are used in a variety of applications across a wide range of industries. Oscillators are used in electronics, mechanical, and optical applications, and are used in timing, clock synchronization, precision measurement, and power regulation. One of the most commonly used oscillators is the 353NB3A240T.
