Crystals
Crystals are in stock with same day shipping at Mouser from industry leading manufacturers. Mouser is an authorized distributor for many frquency timing crystal manufacturers including ABRACON, CTS, ECS, Epson, KYOCERA AVX, Mirco Crystal, NDK, TXC Corporation & more.
Crystals are frequency control components designed to generate highly stable and precise timing references by utilizing the mechanical resonance properties of piezoelectric materials. When excited by an electrical signal, they vibrate at a predictable frequency, providing the accuracy and stability required for synchronization, communication, and processing functions in electronic systems. These components serve as essential timing elements in applications where dependable frequency control and long-term stability are critical.
Types: The most common crystal types include quartz crystals, AT-cut crystals, tuning fork crystals, surface-mount crystals, through-hole crystals, temperature-compensated crystals, and miniature crystals, each optimized for specific frequency, stability, size, and environmental requirements.
Applications: Crystals are widely used in microcontrollers, communication equipment, networking devices, industrial automation systems, consumer electronics, medical devices, automotive electronics, and embedded computing platforms to provide accurate clock and timing references.
Selection requirements: To choose crystals, evaluate frequency rating, frequency tolerance, frequency stability, load capacitance, operating temperature range, package size, aging characteristics, drive level, and suitability for the intended electrical and environmental conditions.
