CA-301 16.0000M-D: PB FREE

Crystals

CA-301 16.0000M-D is a type of crystal manufactured by CASC. It has a wide range of applications in electronics, scientific research, medical and military fields. This crystal has the following features: low power consumption, high precision, good temperature stability, and excellent noise reduction. This crystal is also known as a PB Free crystal because it does not contain any lead-bearing materials.

Application field

CA-301 16.0000M-D crystals are widely used in modern electronics, including consumer and industrial products. These crystals are usually used in frequency-dependent components of circuits, such as radios and timers, for receiving and transmitting information. The crystal can be used as a clock generator and clock divider, as well as for other applications such as filter circuits and audio amplifiers.

In scientific research, the crystal can be used as a sensitive detector of infrared radiation or light. In medical devices, the crystal can be used to measure the heart and respiration rate or to detect cancer. And in the military, it can be used for secure communications.

Working Principle

The working principle of the CA-301 16.0000M-D crystal is based on the principle of mechanical resonance. This crystal has an elastic element that vibrates when energized and can produce an electrical output when the resonance frequency is achieved. The frequency of the signal is determined by the geometry of the crystal and the applied voltage.

The crystal is composed of a quartz plate that is cut in a specific shape. This shape defines the fundamental frequency of the crystal. A small capacitor is connected to the quartz plate, to allow the crystal to vibrate at several harmonics of the fundamental frequency. The application of a voltage across the crystal can change its resonance frequency, as well as its amplitude, or strength, of the vibration.

When the crystal is cut in a specific shape, it is said to be "tuned" for a specific frequency. The frequency of the crystal does not drift by much over the lifetime, so the frequency accuracy of this crystal is quite high. This makes the crystal an ideal choice for electronic devices and circuits that require precise frequency control.
