Crystals
Crystals are a type of electronic component used to control the frequency of electrical oscillations in many types of electronic circuits. Crystals are usually referred to as “timing” or “clock” crystals due to their use in timing circuits and clock oscillators. They are used in a variety of applications such as watches, radios, and computers, and play an important role in digital signal processing.
416F24023AKR Application Field and Working Principle
The 416F24023AKR is a crystal oscillator, which is a component that allows electrical signals to oscillate at a desired frequency. The mechanical oscillation of the crystal is converted into an electrical signal and this signal can then be used to frequency-control a variety of electronic devices. The 416F24023AKR is used for a range of applications, including watches and clocks, radio, and computer systems.
The 416F24023AKR consists of a quartz crystal, or piezoelectric crystal, which vibrates at a specific frequency when a voltage is applied to it. Quartz crystals are resonant devices and will vibrate at their natural frequency when an alternating voltage is applied. The 416F24023AKR is designed to have a frequency of 240 MHz, which is in the range required for most digital devices.
When the 416F24023AKR is connected to a circuit, the alternating voltages produced by the crystal will cause the circuit to oscillate at a frequency determined by the crystal. This oscillation produces a continuous output signal, which can be used to clock digital circuits or produce a frequency control signal. The output signal will usually have a frequency accuracy of between 0.5 and 4%.
The 416F24023AKR is a highly stable clock oscillator, making it ideal for applications where accuracy is critical. It is constructed from an oscillator module, which includes two quartz crystal resonators, and a frequency control circuit for selecting between the two crystals. The frequency control circuit allows the user to select either the primary or the secondary oscillator, or both, and to adjust the frequency.
The 416F24023AKR is a cost-effective solution for frequency-controlled applications where accuracy and stability are essential. It is suitable for a wide range of digital applications, including embedded systems and computer systems. The 416F24023AKR has an operating temperature range of -25°C to +85°C, making it ideal for a variety of applications.
