Crystals: FA-365 16.3840MB-K0 Application Field and Working Principle

Crystals are an important class of components used in electronics. They are used to create precise oscillations that can be used to coordinate or control circuit functions. They are especially important in communication systems, where they help time and sequence signals. FA-365 16.3840MB-K0 is a crystal manufactured by TomTron, which is a leading semiconductor company.

FA-365 16.3840MB-K0 is mainly used as oscillator in digital chips and in wide temperature range. This crystal is generally used in radio receivers, microcontrollers for consumer applications, embedded systems, industrial automation, automotive electronics and medical devices. This crystal can also be used in military and aerospace applications, because it can function reliably in extreme environmental conditions.

FA-365 16.3840MB-K0 crystals have a specific frequency range of 16.384MHz and a frequency stability up to ±60ppm/°C. This crystal oscillator is based on an AT-cut quartz crystal, which is also known as an acoustic surface wave device. This Acoustic Surface Wave (ASW) device is capable of producing high-frequency, stable oscillations with minimal power consumption. It consists of a quartz crystal and two electrodes, one positive and one negative, on which the wave propagates through the surface of the crystal. When an electromagnetic field of a specific frequency is placed on the electrodes, it creates an electrical field that interacts with the quartz crystal and produces vibrations known as a standing wave.

These vibrations are then converted into an electrical signal and sent to an amplifier, which is responsible for increasing the amplitude. The amplified signal is then sent to a frequency control circuit which is used to measure and adjust the frequency of the oscillations. Finally, the processed signal is sent to the output of the device

FA-365 16.3840MB-K0 crystal has a wide operating temperature range from –40°C to +125°C, so it can work in extreme environmental conditions. Furthermore, it has a long-term stability of up to 1 year and its ESR values, which directly affect the quality of oscillations, range between 5 and 6 ohms.
