ECX-L23CM-156.250 Crystals, Oscillators, Resonators

Oscillators

Oscillators are electronic circuits capable of sustaining an AC signal output which confines to a stable frequency. This oscillation frequency is subject to slight variation due to ambient temperature fluctuations, supply voltage variation, or load. ECX-L23CM-156.250 is one typical oscillator with diverse application fields and clear working principle.

Application field

ECX-L23CM-156.250 is a \'Crystal\' oscillator, based on piezo-electric crystals which are fabricated on a printed circuit board. It is widely used for applications such as microcontrolers, digital communication, wireless infrastructure, GPS navigation, broadcast standard, multimedia and consumer electronics. Crystal oscillators are also relatively precise, well-suited for use as a precision frequency source.

Working principle

In a crystal oscillator, the crystal acts as a Piezo-electric resonator to control the frequency of the device. When a voltage is applied to the crystal, it will vibrate at a certain frequency to generate output signals. The frequency can be adjusted by controlling the supply voltage. ECX-L23CM-156.250 is tuned to generate a stable signal at 156.250MHz, with an operating voltage of +3/+5V. It mainly adopts CMOS output (LVTTL) as the output standard.

To further deny electrical noise, electrostatic protection is applied to this type of oscillator. The metal shielding case is designed to reduce the impact from ambient noise and it also helps preventing static electricity generated by the movement of people. Therefore, this oscillator can provide a precise and stable output signal.

Conclusion

ECX-L23CM-156.250 is a highly reliable oscillator, in particular when used for occasions that requires a high precision output source. It can sustain a stable frequency with the help of the Piezo-electric crystal, voltage-adjusted tuning and static electricity protection.
