8Y-30.000MAAE-T crystals can operate with a wide range of input frequencies, including 10MHz, 20MHz, 40MHz, and 80MHz. The frequency accuracy of 8Y-30.000MAAE-T crystals is determined by the efficiency of the Q factor, which is the ratio of output frequency to input frequency of the crystal. The high Q factor of 8Y-30.000MAAE-T crystals enables them to operate at lower power consumption with defined output frequency stability. 8Y-30.000MAAE-T crystals obtain an accuracy of ±20ppm, which is considered to be a good result for most radio and telecommunication applications.

Working Principle

8Y-30.000MAAE-T crystals work based on the piezoelectric effect. This is a phenomenon that generates an electric voltage when quartz crystals are subjected to mechanical pressure. The 8Y-30.000MAAE-T quartz crystal is connected to a circuit of copper parallel wires. The copper wires are alternately fixed on a substrate while the crystals deform in response to the electrical voltage. This electrical voltage subsequently creates pressure in the quartz crystal and produces an output frequency which is determined by the tuned capacitance of the device.

8Y-30.000MAAE-T crystals are also referred to as voltage-controlled oscillators (VCOs) since the frequency output is directly determined by the input voltage. The quartz crystal is tuned to specific frequency with the help of a tuned capacitance, which is connected in series with the crystal. The input voltage applied to the capacitor, together with the capacitance of the crystal, determines the exact frequency output from the device.
