LP111F35CDT Crystals, Oscillators, Resonators

Crystals have been used in various electronics applications for decades and the LP111F35CDT is one such crystal that helps make many different machines operate with greater accuracy and efficiency. As both a frequency control device and a time base, the LP111F35CDT crystal is a highly sought-after component in the crystal industry.

Application Field

LP111F35CDT crystals are generally used in applications such as frequency stabilization and synchronization, telecommunication oscillators and computer clocks. This crystal works well in applications requiring frequency accuracy of parts/million/day or better. Primarily, this device is used for its small size and extremely accurate frequency stability for high precision wireless communication systems.

Working Principle

The LP111F35CDT crystal works on the principle of a piezoelectric effect. When voltage is applied a pressure is generated within the crystal causing it to vibrate at a specific frequency. When the vibration of the crystal causes it to touch the electrodes, it produces a resonance signal. This “resonance frequency” is only achievable at a certain voltage. By controlling the voltage going through the crystal, you can adjust the frequency at which the crystal will vibrate.

The voltage individual electrodes of the crystal are dipoles that are permanently charged. Connecting these dipoles create an electric field, which will cause the crystal to vibrate at an audible frequency. By changing the applied voltage and adjusting the frequency at which the crystal vibrates, engineers can create stable and accurate frequencies for various applications.

The LP111F35CDT crystal is also notable for its temperature stability and steep frequency tuning characteristics. Temperature differences in the crystal can cause slight deviations in frequency, which is why the device is designed with a temperature compensation circuit on-board. With this circuit in place, the crystal is able to maintain high accuracy even in fluctuating environmental conditions.

Thus, the LP111F35CDT crystal offers a reliable and stable source of frequency generation for various systems, resulting in improved performance and accuracy.
