Working Principle

The GL147F23IDT quartz crystal works by converting electrical energy into mechanical energy. A quartz crystal is composed of a material that has a high dielectric constant and low temperature coefficient of elasticity. This combination of properties allows it to vibrate at a frequency that is stable and repeatable. When an electrical current is applied to the crystal, it starts to vibrate, and this vibration is then converted back into electrical energy at a very precise frequency.

The electrical energy is then used to drive components that require an exact and reliable frequency, such as microcontrollers, digital event counters, and digital filters. This helps to maintain accurate timing and maximum efficiency of the circuit.

Conclusion

The GL147F23IDT quartz crystal is a great choice for a wide range of electronic applications, as it provides a stable and reliable frequency in a small and efficient package. Its low profile makes it a great fit for tight spaces, and its wide range of applications make it a versatile component. The combination of these characteristics makes it a great choice for any electronic system requiring an efficient and reliable oscillator, timer, or frequency generator.
