ASTMHTD-12.000MHZ-AR-E

The ASTMHTD-12.000MHZ-AR-E oscillator is an electronic component designed to generate a periodic repetitive signal. Oscillators are widely used in electronics because they provide the stable electrical signals with a fixed frequency in which other components use as references. The ASTMHTD-12.000MHZ-AR-E oscillator falls under the category of Crystals and Quartz Time-Bases, and is designed mainly for the purpose of frequency control in multiple applications.

A crystal oscillator consists of two principal elements: the crystal and the components surrounding it. In the case of the ASTMHTD-12.000MHZ-AR-E, the crystal is an AT-cut quartz resonator, a type of crystal produced by cutting and polishing a specific quartz crystal with special equipment. Quartz is one of the best atoms to use in an oscillator due to its ability to vibrate at a precise frequency for a long period of time.

The ASTMHTD-12.000MHZ-AR-E oscillator comes in a standard 8-pin dip package with the following pin configurations: 1 (Vf), 2 (Ground), 3 (Uout), 4 (Uin), 5 (R), and 6 (T). With this pin configuration, the ASTMHTD-12.000MHZ-AR-E oscillator is able to provide a low jitter, a low phase noise, and a stable frequency. Its external components – capacitors and resistors – are calibrated to assure an accurate frequency and a high frequency stability over the span of its operating temperatures.

The ASTMHTD-12.000MHZ-AR-E oscillator operates on 12.000 MHz. With a frequency stability of ±50 ppm, this oscillator is suited for use in various timing applications like synthesizers, microprocessors, and digital logic circuits. It is also suitable for radio frequency applications such as mobile phones, satellite receivers, navigation systems, and radio transceivers.

The ASTMHTD-12.000MHZ-AR-E has a high frequency stability due to its use of AT-cut quartz resonator and a special piezoelectric effect. The quartz resonator is cut in to very thin slices and then held between two metal electrodes. These metal electrodes then get exposed to an electric current. As the current flows through, a small voltage is applied, causing the quartz to vibrate at an exact frequency. This vibration is then used by the components in the oscillator to generate the required frequency.

The ASTMHTD-12.000MHZ-AR-E oscillator provides reliable frequency control over wide temperature ranges, and has a very low power consumption. It is also a very cost-effective solution due to its low manufacturing cost and the ability to reuse the crystal multiple times.

In summary, the ASTMHTD-12.000MHZ-AR-E oscillator is an electronic component specifically designed for frequency control applications. It is composed of an AT-cut quartz resonator along with external components like capacitors and resistors, and operates on 12.000MHz with a frequency stability of ±50ppm. The ASTMHTD-12.000MHZ-AR-E is a cost-effective, reliable, and low power consumption solution for multiple timing, radio frequency, and radio transceiver applications.
