• Consumer Electronics: The oscillator also used for timing control use in consumer electronics such as washing machine, refrigerator, microwave oven and air conditioning.

Working Principle

The oscillator works by feeding an alternating current through an inductor and capacitor. Depending on the internal resistance of the inductor and capacitor, the current will be attenuated. As the current diminishes, the inductor will release some of the energy it has stored in the form of an oscillating voltage across the capacitor. This oscillating voltage can be adjusted by changing the components in the circuit and can be used to produce clock signals with different frequencies.

In case of the SIT1602BI-12-18E-12. 000000E oscillator, the circuit is composed of a transistor and passive components. The transistor is used as a switch which switches on and off at a certain frequency, which determines the oscillator’s center frequency. Depending on the external load capacitance, the frequency range can be adjusted between 8.500000 MHz and 15.500000 MHz.
