We’ve read a lot about oscillators, but crystal oscillators seem to be a bit of a mystery. Hobby-level books tend to say, build a circuit like this and then mess with it until it oscillates.

Ever wonder how a crystal oscillator works? How does that little metal can with a sliver of quartz start vibrating to produce a clock signal for just about everything we use, while doing it in the ...

This application note presents the need to use an external Pierce oscillator to replace the RTC oscillator circuit that makes EP93xx susceptible to on-chip noises. It describes the implementation of ...

The TS_XOSC_40M_X8 is a 8MHz / 40MHz Pierce oscillator that generates a VCC-level logic square wave when a 8MHz / 40MHz quartz crystal is connected be ...

TES Electronic Solutions GmbH announces the release of two new high-performance timing IP cores, the TS_XOSC_40M_X8 Pierce Oscillator and the TS_CLKBUF_25pF_X8 Clock Buffer, designed to deliver ...

Although oscillators are critical components in most electronic devices, designers needn’t design oscillators themselves in most cases, because the device contains a great deal of the oscillator ...
