11 TXC Confidential & Proprietary | 11 Thickness of Blank: Determines Frequency Al AT Cut Crystal - Resonance frequency is determined by thickness of blank. - For a 20 MHz crystal, the thickness is around 83um. (The diameter of human hair is around 50~80um) - The thinner the blank, the higher the frequency is. Note : The constant of 1670 is not the exact number for AT cutting. This number ranges from 1650 ~ 1685 depends on the dimension and thickness of the AT quartz plate. Frequency

13 TXC Confidential & Proprietary | 13Specification Tips of Defining the Specification of a Crystal: 1. Determine the Nominal Frequency Ex: 8Z Series (2.5x2.0 mm) 2. Choose the Load Capacitance 3. Define the Frequency Tolerance and Stability 4. Define the Drivel Level, Effective Resistance, and Shunt capacitance C 0

14 TXC Confidential & Proprietary | 14 Load Capacitance Choosing : C L vs. Trim Sensitivity Load Capacitance: 06~10 pF, high trim sensitivity: unstable, but tunable Load Capacitance: 16~30 pF, low trim sensitivity: stable, but hardly tunable Ex. 3.2 x 2.5mm, 12.0 MHz, CL=8.0 pF
