Introduction to Oscillators
Oscillators are electronic circuits that produce a steady, repetitive signal to drive a system or device. The output frequency of the oscillator is determined by the components and their values. Oscillators can be used to provide a precise frequency reference for clocks, to drive analog circuits and analog to digital converters, to provide waveforms for low level analog modulation or sound generation, and to generate signals for radio applications. Oscillators come in many forms, including discrete components, integrated circuits, and software based algorithm generators.

The Working Principle of DSC1121AI2-024.5760T Oscillator
The DSC1121AI2-024.5760T Oscillator works on the principle of quartz vibration. When the oscillator is turned on, voltage is applied to the quartz crystal and it begins to vibrate in a predictable pattern. This oscillation rate is dependant on the crystalline structure, size and other conditions, with a frequency typically ranging from 0.1 kHz to 100 MHz. The vibration frequency affects controlling circuitry and can be adjusted using control software or design in the oscillator output circuit.

The oscillator generally has an output amplifier that provides a digital signal of predetermined levels to drive the external load. The output may be a digital or an analog signal, depending on the application. Oscillators usually contain a feedback circuit that maintains the frequency and phase of the output signal and prevents the oscillator from running away from control. This circuit may be constructed with transistors as a positive feedback or with a resistor capacitor network if a negative feedback is desired.
