Crystal Oscillators

Editorial Team

Nov 10, 2018

A small change in the frequency of a quartz crystal over a period of time is called as aging. This effect is always kept in consideration whenever a crystal is used for an application.Aging in crystal...read more

What is a VCXO?

Crystal Oscillators

Editorial Team

Apr 10, 2018

A VCXO is a Voltage Controlled Crystal Oscillator whose output/oscillating frequency changes when a control voltage is applied to it under a constant supply voltage. A VCXO consists of a crystal oscil...read more
