LP061F35IET

Crystal oscillators are common electronic components that produce highly precise signals for a variety of uses. The LP061F35IET is a type of crystal oscillator typically used to rate electronic circuits, such as a clock “timebase” circuit, which generates a basic signaling frequency from the crystal oscillator. This article will discuss the LP061F35IET’s application field and working principle.

Applications

Applications of the LP061F35IET vary depending on the size and shape of the crystal itself. Since the LP061F35IET is an AT-cut SMD crystal oscillator, it is best suited for surface mount technology (SMT) applications, although these components may also be used in through-hole technology (THT) designs. Common applications for the LP061F35IET include digital encoders, clocks, timers, and clocks for embedded systems.

Working Principle

The LP061F35IET crystal oscillator operates on a standing wave principle in which the electrical energy passing through the oscillator is reflected back and forth between the two electrodes. The oscillator is typically connected to a resonator made of quartz, which has very low electrical loss and is capable of transmitting an electrical signal between the electrodes with very little energy being lost. The oscillator generates a frequency that is accurately proportional to the crystal’s resonant frequency, which may vary slightly depending on the surrounding temperature or other environmental factors. This frequency can be used to control or regulate the operation of a circuit, such as a clock or timer.
