Working Principle

At its core, SG-310SCF 33.3300MB0 is an oven-controlled crystal oscillator (OCXO), which uses the piezoelectric effect for generating an electrical signal with precise frequency. It consists of three major components: a piezoelectric crystal, an electronic amplifier and an oven. The crystal vibrates at resonance and generates an alternating current signal that is amplified and sent to the oven. The oven controls the ambient temperature of the crystal, where it works optimally. The output of the crystal oscillator is monitored and precise frequency stability is thus achieved.
