Crystals

Crystals are an important component in many modern technology and the main subject of scientific research. One particular example is the MP064, a type of quartz crystal used in the telecommunications industry.

Overview

Quartz is a mineral made up of silica, oxygen and other constituents such as calcium carbonate or trace metals. This type of crystal has the interesting property of piezoelectricity, meaning it can generate an electrical current when it is subjected to physical pressure. Being composed largely of oxygen and silicon, quartz is also known for its mechanical strength and durability.

MP064 Application Field and Working Principle

The MP064 is used primarily to control the timing of oscillators and microprocessors in digital devices. In other words, it is a kind of "clock" for electronic devices, regulating the speed of operations that take place within them. In telecommunications, quartz crystals are also used as media for filtering, as well as for amplifying electrical signals.

In order to understand the working principle of the MP064, it is important to first understand the concept of piezoelectricity. When a quartz crystal is subjected to pressure, it will generate a small electrical current. This is a result of the mineral\'s inner organisation, when the molecules are slightly moved due to the pressure exerted upon them. This precise frequency can be used to accurately time the processes that take place in an electronic device.

The MP064 has other features that make it even more reliable. The crystal has two electrodes on its surface, which are connected to two pairs of pins. When voltage is applied to these, the electrical current contained in the crystal produces a series of vibrations within it. These vibrations form a precise and stable frequency which forms the basis of the oscillator that controls the timing of the device.

Conclusion

Crystals like the MP064 quartz crystal are ubiquitous in the field of electronics and telecommunications. Their ability to produce a precise and stable frequency makes them invaluable tools in the precise timing of oscillators and microprocessors in digital devices. Being composed largely of oxygen and silicon, quartz is also very durable and, thus, perfect for this application.
