CSTLS16M0X55-A0 Crystals, Oscillators, Resonators

Introduction

The CSTLS16M0X55-A0 is a crystal resonator device, used to store and transfer oscillatory energy from one circuit to another. Crystal resonators are amongst the most widely used electronic components today, due to their low cost and extreme reliability. The CSTLS16M0X55-A0 is a relatively small device compared to some other crystal resonators, though its size and capabilities still allow it to fulfill its purpose with great precision and accuracy.

Application Fields

Crystal resonators are used in a variety of applications, and the CSTLS16M0X55-A0 is no different. This particular device is primarily used in consumer electronic goods, such as smart phones, PC’s and gaming consoles as a clock source. It is also used in modulation, demodulation and low frequency signals such as radio waves and waves used for data transmission.

As the CSTLS16M0X55-A0 is relatively small, it is also well-suited for use in mobile devices and some wearables, especially since its power consumption is low. Its flexibility also enables it to be incorporated into a variety of devices, both standard and highly specialized.

Working Principle

The CSTLS16M0X55-A0 is a piezoelectric crystal resonator and functions in much the same way as most other crystal resonators. It consists of two metal plates with a crystal in between, and when it is subjected to an electric current, the crystal vibrates and creates an oscillatory wave. This oscillatory wave can be then used as an electrical signal source.

The crystal itself is constructed in such a way that its vibration has a very specific frequency, set by the manufacturer during production. This is known as the “resonant frequency”, and this frequency must be determined in order to get the best performance from the CSTLS16M0X55-A0.

The CSTLS16M0X55-A0 is further equipped with a number of features that help to ensure that it functions as effectively as possible. It has built-in temperature compensation to ensure that its resonant frequency remains constant in different temperature ranges, as well as automatic temperature control to lower power consumption. It also has an adjustable load pattern, so that users can adjust the signal strength to meet their particular requirements.

Conclusion

The CSTLS16M0X55-A0 is a compact yet highly capable crystal resonator, capable of providing reliable, accurate and low-power clock and data signals for a variety of applications. Its low cost and ease of use have made it a popular choice for many, though its accuracy and reliability means it is often preferred for more specialized or mission-critical applications.

The CSTLS16M0X55-A0 is also capable of meeting a wide range of customer needs, thanks to its adjustable features and built-in temperature control. As a result, it is one of the most popular choices for clock source and signal transfer requirements.
