about 100mhz upper limit

this is a mechanical vibration in a piece of quartz

sound travels about 1000ft a second

1 ft crystal is 1000 hz

1/8 inch 1Mhz

0.0002 in = 1Ghz

crystals in about 30Mhz are generally 3rd harmonic so perhaps .040 " is a practical limit ... experimenters have made them thinner but its usually a thin flat spot in the middle of a thicker piece

the crystal in your watch is of tuning fork variety held at the edge swings side to side so it doesnt need to be 3" thick

they settled on about 1/4" long and divide by 32768 in a ripple counter so you can see seconds

a meter long or so on the tuning fork crystal ought to give seconds directly

would be fine for a wall clock maybe

there is also a power limitation quartz breaks if bent beyond its elastic limit

has nice stability till then

Differetiate between LC oscillators and crystal controlled oscillators?

LC oscillators use inductors and capacitors to generate a frequency, while crystal controlled oscillators use a quartz crystal to establish the frequency. LC oscillators can be less stable and accurate compared to crystal controlled oscillators, which offer better precision and stability. Crystal controlled oscillators are commonly used in applications where precise frequency control is essential.

Which oscillator produces 1MHz frequency?

One type of oscillator that can produce a 1MHz frequency is a crystal oscillator. Crystal oscillators use a quartz crystal to generate stable and precise frequencies. They are commonly used in electronic devices like radios, computers, and microcontrollers to provide accurate timing signals.


What is Oscillator circuit?

An oscillator circuit is an electronic circuit that generates a periodic, oscillating signal, typically in the form of a sine wave or square wave. It converts direct current (DC) from a power supply into an alternating current (AC) signal. Oscillators are widely used in various applications, including clocks, radio transmitters, and signal generators, to create specific frequencies for communication and timing purposes. Common types include LC oscillators, RC oscillators, and crystal oscillators, each utilizing different components to achieve oscillation.


How crystal oscillator provides good frequency stability?

A: It is a mechanical device once it is exited it will oscillate at its mechanical frequency unless the mechanics changes it will not drift as compered to other oscillators
