416F2711XATT Application Field and Working Principle

The 416F2711XATT is a type of crystal commonly used in electronics and telecommunications. The device derives its name from the strychnine element, which is also present in garnet. The crystal is part of a range of crystals that are advantageous in terms of frequency stability, small size, and good immunity to environmental noise.

The device is a miniature ceramic crystal that consists of three terminals. It was developed for high-frequency clock generating technologies and it is used in a wide variety of applications such as when precise and accurate timing is required. Its features make the 416F2711XATT well-suited for high-frequency radio communications, computer timing, high-speed integrated circuits and an array of other areas that require performance, accuracy and reliability.

The 416F2711XATT can be also used as a frequency generator or oscillator inside devices that use SAW, VCO, and LC oscillators. It is ideal for applications where low power consumption is desired. It is also employed for the manufacture of PLL, FSK, and ASK communications systems.

Working Principle

The 416F2711XATT’s working principle can be understood by looking at its internal components, which are housed within the small package. At its core, the device contains a small mass that is attached to two small plates made of crystal quartz. Each of the plates is covered with a conductor to form two electrodes. When a voltage is applied to these electrodes, the mass begins to vibrate and produces an oscillating electrical signal which has a frequency directly proportional to the applied voltage.

In order to achieve the desired frequencies, the crystal is mounted on a specialized substrate and in a hermetic package, which prevents any environmental influences from affecting the frequency output. Furthermore, the package helps to maintain a consistent and reliable output as the crystal resonates at the same frequency for long periods. In addition, the package also helps to reduce power consumption and provides long-term stability.

Conclusion

The 416F2711XATT is a highly reliable and precise ceramic crystal. Due to its small size and superior frequency stability, it is suitable for a wide range of applications that require consistent, accurate timing. Its working principle relies on the use of a mass attached to two quartz plates, which when subjected to voltage, produce an oscillating signal with a frequency proportional to the applied voltage. The device is also packaged in a hermetic package which helps improve its performance and prolong its life.
