ECS-107.3-S-4X

Crystals are a technology that utilize the physical properties of crystals to control the frequency of electronic equipment or measure pulses, or take advantage of their piezoelectricity. The ECS-107.3-S-4X is a piezoelectric quartz crystal that finds application in several areas, but primarily as an oscillator in high-frequency marine radars. Its frequency can be precisely adjusted and maintained over a wide temperature range, providing better accuracy and longer service life than other quartz oscillators.

The ECS-107.3-S-4X is a high-performance AT-cut quartz oscillator with a frequency stability of ±3 ppm over a temperature range of -40℃ to 85℃. It is packaged in a ceramic 4-pin housing and has a fundamental frequency of 107.3 MHz. It has a low phase noise of -90 dBc/Hz at 10 kHz offset and excellent long-term aging characteristics of ±1 ppm/year.

The oscillation of the ECS-107.3-S-4X is generated by the inverse piezoelectric effect. This effect occurs when an external voltage is applied across a quartz crystal, causing it to expand and contract. This expansion and contraction due to the electric field causes the crystal to vibrate at a very specific and controlled frequency. By attaching the crystal to an oscillator circuit, the electrical current that is applied will cause it to oscillate and generate a signal with a frequency determined by the physical dimensions of the crystal.

The ECS-107.3-S-4X is widely used as an oscillator in maritime radars. It provides a stable and reliable frequency over a wide temperature range, making it ideal for use in harsh environments. In addition, its low phase noise remains low over a wide temperature range, making it suitable for use in sensitive communication systems. This crystal is also well-suited for use in other applications, such as satellite communication systems, and has been gaining popularity due to its excellent stability and cost-effectiveness.

The ECS-107.3-S-4X is an excellent crystal with excellent characteristics, making it suitable for many applications. Its wide temperature range and low phase noise make it an ideal choice for maritime radar applications, and its excellent stability and cost-effectiveness make it suitable for a variety of other applications as well. With advances in crystal technology, the ECS-107.3-S-4X may soon become the crystal of choice for more sensitive communication systems.
