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.

Crystal oscillators are incredibly useful components, but they come with one little snag: their oscillation is ...

Optical parametric oscillators (OPOs) are convenient sources of coherent light that suit numerous scientific applications, including various types of ... use a nonlinear crystal to convert a ...

The new additions to Vishay’s frequency control portfolio include six new series of crystals and three new series of oscillators. Vishay’s new sizes include crystals as compact as 1.6 mm by 1.2 mm and ...
