This crystal is a quartz crystal featuring symmetrical package and relying on crystal resonator and metal electrode as the base of circuit. This crystal can provide a variable temperature compensation up to 40°C, with ECS-92.1-18-4XEN being able to adjust the temperature of the quartz crystal and maintain a frequency accuracy of up to 20ppm at a temperature of -20°C to 80°C.

Application Field

ECS-92.1-18-4XEN crystal is well-suited for applications in the audio and radio frequency range. It\'s especially useful for portable and handheld electronic devices, as it consumes very low power, thus extending the battery life of these devices. Due to its low profile and small package, it\'s also well-suited for applications in space-constrained devices. Additionally, ECS-92.1-18-4XEN crystals can be found in different kinds of communication equipment, computer peripherals, digital cameras and navigational instruments.

Working Principle

The ECS-92.1-18-4XEN crystal is based on the piezoelectric effect. This effect occurs in certain crystals due to their special crystalline structures. By applying a voltage to the crystal, it causes it to become distorted, and its surface to vibrate at a certain frequency. This frequency is determined by the structure of the crystal, and the size and orientation of the electrodes. The electrodes are used to add enough energy to the crystal to initiate and maintain the vibration. The vibration frequency is then used to control the timing of an electronic circuit.

The ECS-92.1-18-4XEN crystal is also able to accommodate changes in environmental temperature by varying the voltage applied to it. This process is known as temperature compensation, and ensures that the crystal oscillates at the same, accurate frequency despite changes in the surrounding temperature.

Conclusion

ECS-92.1-18-4XEN crystal is a useful part in electronic products. It is suitable for use in many applications, such as audio and radio frequency range, portable devices, and navigation instruments. It has the capacity of providing temperature compensation up to 40°C, enabling accurate frequency control over wide temperature ranges. It also consumes very low power, making it ideal for extending the battery life of portable devices.
