Crystal Oscillator Information

Selecting an Oscilent Crystal Oscillator:

1. Operating Environment In selecting a Crystal Oscillator. Careful consideration should be given to the size constraints applicable to the PCB, whether a through hole or SMT device is needed, and to the temperature environment in which the Crystal Oscillator will operate:

2. Electrical Parameters, will have common characteristics that will be standard across industry participants. These characteristics include:

• frequencies
• drive currents
• capacitance
• pin outs
