Few electronic components have stood the test of time better than the quartz-crystal oscillator or resonator. But researchers continue to search for a quartz replacement because the components don’t ...

PORTLAND, Ore.— Integrated Device Technology Inc. has introduced what it claims is the world's most accurate all-silicon CMOS oscillator with the industry's highest frequency accuracy, measured in ...

Watch aficionados have a certain lust for mechanical watches. These old school designs rely on a spring that’s wound up to store energy. The movement, an intricate set of gears and other mechanical ...

A strategic Alliance between Discera Inc. and Vectron International has led to the introduction of the first MEMS-based CMOS timing circuit that can directly replace traditional quartz crystal ...

Called SiT8021, power consumption is 110µA for 3MHz, and the device is available in chip-scale packages (CSPs) as small as 1.5×0.8mm. The MEMS part is a 524kHz double tuning fork resonator (see ...

TXC is optimistic about high-end quartz crystal and crystal oscillator demand in the second half of 2023, thanks to the release of new smartphone models and AI device applications, according to the ...

This file type includes high resolution graphics and schematics. Virtually every electronic product requires at least one precision timing circuit. Many devices require as many as 10 separate clocks.

Research project at Caltech shows terahertz oscillations possible for diverse electronics applications. Vahala's laser frequency reference (left); the quartz "tuning fork" (center) is a conventional ...
