GL098F23CDT

Crystals

Crystals are substances with a regular repeating pattern in their atommic-level structure, forming a uniform crystal lattice that extends in all directions. However, the specific type of crystal used for any application depends upon the desired properties of the crystal, such as type of frequency, speed and stability. One such crystal application is the GL098F23CDT.

The GL098F23CDT series crystal is a type of fundamental-mode crystal resonator. It has a lower frequency range of 1.2–25.2Mhz and a guaranteed frequency stability up to ±30ppm. This crystal resonator is used in applications where precision, stability, accuracy and long-term reliability are important factors, such as in resonators for wearables, mobile phones and communications equipment.

Physically, the GL098F23CDT is a small and compact sized crystal resonator, usually made of either a ceramic dielectric material or polypropylene. This small size makes it suitable for use in products where size is a main consideration and is ideal for both surface-mount and through-hole applications.

The working principle behind the crystal resonator is based on the piezoelectric effect. In a piezoelectric-based crystal, an electric field is applied to an asymmetrically loaded layer, causing it to vibrate at its fundamental resonance frequency, when a resonator circuit is generated. The GL098F23CDT utilizes this same principle in order to achieve its desired frequency.

The GL098F23CDT also features several other characteristics, such as a low jitter, low EMI and excellent thermal stability. Thanks to these benefits, this crystal resonator is suited for applications where high-precision and reliable oscillator performance is required, such as in mobile communications, consumer electronics, industrial and automotive applications.

Overall, the GL098F23CDT is a small and efficient crystal resonator which is designed to be used in applications where high-precision and reliable oscillator performance is needed. Through its combination of small size and excellent oscillator characteristics, it is highly suited for use in a variety of applications, such as in wearables, mobile phones and communications equipment.
