Working Principle

The 402F30722IDT crystal oscillator works on the principle of piezoelectricity. Piezoelectricity is the phenomenon where certain crystals (including quartz) generate an electric potential when subjected to mechanical stresses. The 402F30722IDT crystal oscillator works by vibrating (resonating) when an AC voltage is applied to it. The vibration of the crystal creates a sinusoidal AC voltage at the frequency of the oscillator.

The crystal is connected to two electrodes of an AC circuit, which form a bridge. The alternating voltage applied to the electrodes causes the crystal to vibrate at its resonance frequency. As the crystal vibrates, its capacitance changes, causing changes in the current of the AC circuit. These changes result in a sinusoidal voltage at the output of the oscillator, at the desired frequency.

The 402F30722IDT crystal oscillator is designed to provide very accurate and consistent frequencies. Its frequency is determined by the physical characteristics of the crystal, such as its size and shape. The crystal is hermetically sealed in a housing that helps to protect it from external influences, such as temperature, humidity, and shock.
