TS540T33IET

Crystals are natural or synthetic substances made up of a three-dimensional periodic arrangement of atoms, ions, or molecules. They are widely used in modern electronics and have a wide range of applications including timekeeping, oscillators, sensors, receivers and transmitters. A type of crystal that is widely used in modern electronics is the TS540T33IET.

The TS540T33IET is a temperature-compensated oscillator, commonly known as a TCXO. The TCXO is designed to provide precise frequency control with minimal variation due to temperature changes. This type of crystal oscillator was designed for use in applications such as frequency standards, telecommunications, microwave radio, Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS).

The TS540T33IET features a range of features, including a high stability of ±1.0 x 10-7, over the temperature range of -40 to +85°C. It also has a wide operating temperature range with a low current of 1.5mA and a wide supply voltage range of 8V to 15V. The TCXO is also a very compact crystal, with a size of 5.3 x 3.2 x 1.5mm.

The primary application of the TCXO is frequency control, with the oscillator providing precise output frequencies over a wide temperature range. The crystal oscillator provides a low-phase noise and low-jitter clock, making it suitable for communication systems. The small size and low current draw of the TCXO make it an ideal choice for applications that require a small, low power and reliable clock source.

The working principle of the TCXO is based on the electron emission of the crystal material. The crystal structure of the material allows electrons to enter and exit the structure through the oscillation of an crystal frequency. As the external temperature changes, the emissions rate of the crystal changes, which in turn changes the crystal oscillation frequency. This oscillation frequency is then amplified and used to produce the required clock frequency.

The TS540T33IET TCXO provides precise frequency control and a wide temperature range, making it suitable for a wide range of applications. The small size and low power consumption of the TCXO make it an ideal choice for low power applications such as communication systems and GNSS.
