SIT8208AC-22-18E-12.000000X

Oscillators are devices which produce alternating current (AC) signals of desired frequency. There are many different types of oscillators which are tailored to meet a variety of needs, one of which is the SIT8208AC-22-18E-12.000000X model. This oscillator produces an AC signal at a frequency of 12 MHz and is a powerful component used in a range of applications.

The SIT8208AC-22-18E-12.000000X oscillator is typically used in a variety of fixed-frequency applications such as medical ultrasound machines, automated test equipment, communication systems, frequency counters, and frequency synthesizers. This is due to its highly stable and precise output frequency and low power dissipation.

The working principle of the SIT8208AC-22-18E-12.000000X oscillator is based on a Pierce-type oscillator which utilizes two inverters with a piezoelectric crystal between them. The crystal vibrates at its resonant frequency when a voltage is applied to it, producing an alternating current of the same frequency. The inverters amplify the signal, and the combined output is delivered via a 50 ohm output line.

In order to ensure that the SIT8208AC-22-18E-12.000000X oscillator produces an accurate and stable output, the crystal must be carefully selected. The frequency is very sensitive to the temperature of the crystal, so it must be thermally stabilized in order to maintain the desired output frequency over temperature variation. The oscillator is also designed to minimize the effects of ambient noise.

The SIT8208AC-22-18E-12.000000X oscillator is a powerful and reliable component which has found application in a range of fixed-frequency applications. It is capable of producing accurate and stable output frequencies, making it a popular choice for medical, communication, and industrial applications.
