TA-12.000MCD-T

Oscillators are electronic devices that create high-frequency signals with varying shapes and applications, ranging from audio oscillators that repair music, television, and radio, to very precise cycles used to keep accurate time. One of the more widely used devices is the TA-12.000MCD-T oscillator. This oscillator features a ceramic element that helps induce resonance, allowing it to create signals with excellent frequency stability.

Overview

The TA-12.000MCD-T oscillator is a low-profile, surface-mount device that uses a sturdy ceramic element to generate highly precise signals. It also features a hermetically sealed construction with metal alloy enclosure that helps to ensure long-term operation. The crystal oscillator is fully RoHS compliant and offers frequency-stability down to ± 75ppm with no load. It is capable of operating at temperatures of -20 to 70°C.

Application Fields

The TA-12.000MCD-T can be found in many communication and timing applications, including Wi-Fi, GSM, and GPS systems, PCR detector, digital cameras, and cell phone networks. It can also be used in more specialized applications, such as circadian clocks and navigation systems where highly precise and stable signals are required.

Working Principle

The TA-12.000MCD-T utilizes a quartz crystal to generate signals. Quartz is a highly effective material for creating precise oscillations, and the ceramic element of this device serves to stabilize these oscillations. The crystal oscillator is set at a certain frequency and the electrical signals it produces cause the crystal to vibrate, producing mechanical energy in the form of sound waves. This sound wave is then picked up by the ceramic element, which reinforces the signal frequency and amplifies it. The resulting waveforms can be used for various applications with minimal deviation in frequency.

Conclusion

The TA-12.000MCD-T oscillator is a highly precise, low-profile device that is suitable for many communication and timing applications. It features a hermetically sealed metal alloy enclosure, allowing it to function reliably over long-term periods. Additionally, the ceramic element helps to stabilize and amplify the signal, producing precise and consistent frequency output. This oscillator is an invaluable aid for both consumer-level and specialized applications requiring accurate and stable signals.
