Crystals refer to substances that are held together by organized and repetitive atomic structures, known as crystal lattices. A variety of materials comprise the category of crystals, including precious stones, metals, minerals and synthetically produced materials. These materials possess a range of properties, such as physical, optical, and electrical. Crystals are used for various applications, from high-precision frequency control to optical collection and amplification.

The ECS-240-20-23A-EN-TR crystal is a frequency-controlling component that is used in a variety of communication devices such as radios and modems. This component is a dual-frequency oscillator that offers the user the ability to adjust the frequency of their devices with great precision. It has a temperature coefficient of 100 ppm/°C and a frequency stability range of ±20 ppm over the -20°C to 85°C temperature range.

ECS-240-20-23A-EN-TR consists of two quartz crystal units in an hermetically sealed 6-pin metal can. The two quartz crystals are connected in a third overtone series resonance configuration, driven from a common external source. The device also includes a resistor network and transistors, to control each frequency output amplitude. It also features a single load capacitance for both resonators, and a highly reliable external capacitor for both frequency outputs.

In terms of operation, an oscillator consisting of the two quartz crystal units, resistor network, and transistors is configured to produce two separate output signals that are adjustable through the user’s manipulation of the resistor network. With the two crystal units that are connected in series, they are driven at a third overtone configuration at two frequencies. The two outputs are then amplified and coupled to the output of the oscillator circuit, which is connected to an external load. The external load is comprised of an external capacitor as well as a resistive element, which can be tuned in order to adjust the frequency output.

This crystal is ideal for industrial use, offering precise frequency control. As such, it is suitable for a range of applications such as radio telemetry systems, satellite communication systems, modems, and various other communication and navigation systems. Its precise frequency control allows for more precise user-controlled adjustment of the output signal than any other type of crystal. Furthermore, its fast response time and power efficiency make it an ideal choice for applications that require fast signal processing.

The ECS-240-20-23A-EN-TR crystal is an example of how crystals can be used for precise frequency control and signal processing in various applications. With its hermetic package and small size, the device is suited to meet the needs of many industrial applications.
