[0040] Some embodiments of the present application are described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. In the absence of conflict, the following embodiments and features in the embodiments can be combined with each other.
[0041] See also Figure 1-Figure 5 , an embodiment of the present application provides a high stability crystal oscillator 100, comprising an electronic component 10, a patch pin 30, and a welding plate 40;
[0042] The shell 20 is provided with an electrical cavity 21 for accommodating the electronic component 10; the SMD pin 30 includes a power pin 31 and an output pin 32, and the power pin 31 and the output pin 32 are both arranged in the electrical cavity and extend out of the shell 20; the welding plate 40 is arranged outside the shell 20 and connected to the SMD pin 30, and is welded to the circuit board on the side away from the shell 20; wherein a heat insulation layer 40a is formed between the welding plate 40 and the shell 20, which is used to isolate the heat of the circuit board from being transferred to the shell 20.
[0043] Specifically, the electronic component 10 includes a crystal, an amplifier 13, etc., and is a core component of a crystal oscillator. The crystal is used to generate a stable oscillation signal, and the amplifier 13 is used to amplify the signal to ensure the quality of the output signal. The housing 20 is the outer shell of the crystal oscillator, which is used to accommodate and protect the electronic component 10. An electrical cavity 21 is provided inside the housing 20 to ensure that the electronic component 10 can operate normally while being protected. The housing 20 can effectively protect the electronic component 10 from the influence of the external environment, such as dust, moisture, etc. At the same time, the design of the housing 20 can also affect the thermal management and electromagnetic interference control of the oscillator, and improve the stability and anti-interference ability of the oscillator.
[0044] Furthermore, the pin is the interface for connecting the oscillator to the external circuit. The power pin 31 is used to provide power supply, and the output pin 32 is used to output the signal generated by the oscillator. The design of the patch pin 30 can ensure the stable supply of power and the reliable output of the signal, ensuring the normal operation of the oscillator. The reasonable design of the pin can also reduce the interference with the external circuit and improve the anti-interference ability of the oscillator. The welding plate 40 connects the pin and the circuit board of the oscillator, and is the key connection part between the oscillator and the external circuit.
[0045] Furthermore, the design of the welding plate 40 can ensure reliable connection between the pins and the circuit board, making the signal transmission between the oscillator and the external circuit more stable. At the same time, the heat insulation layer 40a between the welding plate 40 and the housing 20 can prevent the heat of the circuit board from being directly transferred to the oscillator, thereby reducing the operating temperature change of the oscillator. This helps to improve the temperature stability of the crystal oscillator and maintain its frequency stability and performance.
[0046] In a specific embodiment, the electronic component 10 includes an electrode sheet 11, a baffle 12 and an amplifier 13, and the electrode sheet 11 and the amplifier 13 are electrically connected to the power pin 31 and the output pin 32 respectively;
[0047] The baffle 12 is disposed between the electrode sheet 11 and the amplifier 13 , and two ends of the baffle 12 abut against the inner wall of the electrical cavity 21 to prevent heat interaction between the electrode sheet 11 and the amplifier 13 .
[0048] Specifically, the electronic component 10 is a key component of the crystal oscillator, wherein the electrode sheet 11 is used to connect the crystal and the amplifier 13, and the amplifier 13 is used to amplify the signal generated by the oscillator. The baffle 12 is located between the electrode sheet 11 and the amplifier 13, and plays the role of heat insulation and isolation.
[0049] Beneficial effects: The connection between the electrode sheet 11 and the amplifier 13 ensures the transmission of the signal, and the presence of the baffle 12 can effectively prevent the heat exchange between the electrode sheet 11 and the amplifier 13, and maintain the stable performance of the oscillator. The baffle 12 is located between the electrode sheet 11 and the amplifier 13 as a heat insulation layer 40a, and is used to prevent the transfer of heat between the two components. The presence of the baffle 12 effectively isolates the heat exchange between the electrode sheet 11 and the amplifier 13, ensures the stable operating temperature of each component of the oscillator, and improves the stability and reliability of the oscillator.
[0050] In summary, the reasonable design and layout of the electronic component 10 and the setting of the baffle 12 as the heat insulation layer 40a can ensure the performance and stability of the crystal oscillator. In various application scenarios, these features can ensure the normal operation of the oscillator and provide a reliable oscillation signal.
[0051] In a specific embodiment, the electronic component 10 also includes an oscillating crystal 14, which is disposed in the electrical cavity 21. The oscillating crystal 14 is located above the electrode sheet 11, the baffle 12 and the amplifier 13, and is electrically connected to the electrode sheet 11 and the amplifier 13 through conductive glue.
[0052] Specifically, the oscillation crystal 14 is a key component for generating an oscillation signal in a crystal oscillator, and it generates a stable oscillation frequency through the physical properties of the crystal. The stability of the oscillation crystal 14 determines the frequency stability of the oscillator. Selecting a high-quality oscillation crystal 14 can improve the frequency accuracy and stability of the oscillator, so that it can work reliably in various application scenarios. Placing the oscillation crystal 14 in the electrical cavity 21 and above the electrode sheet 11, the baffle 12 and the amplifier 13 can protect the oscillation crystal 14 from the electronic component 10 and enable the oscillation signal to be transmitted to the amplifier 13 more stably. Such a layout design can reduce the impact of the external environment on the oscillation crystal 14, improve the stability and reliability of the oscillator, and ensure that it can work normally in various working environments.
[0053] Furthermore, conductive glue is used to connect the oscillating crystal 14 to the electrode sheet 11 and the amplifier 13, thereby ensuring a stable electrical connection between the oscillating crystal 14 and the electronic component 10. The conductive glue has good conductivity and mechanical properties, can provide a reliable electrical connection, and can maintain stability when the oscillator vibrates or the temperature changes, thereby improving the performance and reliability of the oscillator.
[0054] In a specific embodiment, the oscillator further includes a heat insulation plate 50 , and the four sides of the heat insulation plate 50 are in contact with the inner circumference of the electrical cavity 21 , so as to separate the electrical cavity 21 into a first cavity 211 and a second cavity 212 .
[0055] Specifically, the heat shield 50 is located inside the oscillator and is used to separate the electrical cavity 21 into two independent cavities. Its four sides are in contact with the inner circumference of the electrical cavity 21, ensuring effective isolation between the two cavities. The existence of the heat shield 50 effectively isolates the heat transfer inside the oscillator and prevents heat exchange between different components. In this way, the temperature inside the oscillator can be kept stable, and the performance and reliability of the oscillator can be improved.
[0056] Furthermore, the heat shield 50 separates the electrical cavity 21 into two independent cavities, each containing an oscillating crystal 14 and other electronic components 10. This can effectively isolate the heat exchange between the oscillating crystal 14 and other electronic components 10 to avoid mutual interference. Separating the electrical cavity 21 into two cavities helps reduce internal heat accumulation and interference, and improves the stability and reliability of the oscillator. At the same time, this design can also make the oscillator easier to maintain and adjust, thereby improving production efficiency.
[0057] In a specific embodiment, the oscillating crystal 14 is disposed in the second cavity 212 , and the electrode sheet 11 , the baffle 12 and the amplifier 13 are disposed in the first cavity 211 to prevent heat from affecting the oscillating crystal 14 .
[0058] Specifically, the oscillating crystal 14 is placed in the second cavity 212, which can be isolated from other electronic components 10, reducing the impact of the external environment on the oscillating crystal 14. By placing the oscillating crystal 14 in the second cavity 212, the impact of external environmental factors on the oscillating crystal 14 can be reduced, the frequency stability and reliability of the oscillator can be improved, and it can be ensured that it can work normally in various working environments. The electrode sheet 11, the baffle 12 and the amplifier 13 are placed in the first cavity 211, working together with other electronic components 10, but isolated from the oscillating crystal 14 to prevent heat from being directly transferred to the oscillating crystal 14.
[0059] Furthermore, by placing the electrode sheet 11, the baffle 12 and the amplifier 13 in the first cavity 211, the heat transfer between them and the oscillating crystal 14 can be effectively isolated, and the heat generated by the external ambient temperature change or the operation of the electronic component 10 itself can be prevented from affecting the stability of the oscillating crystal 14. Placing the oscillating crystal 14 in the second cavity 212 and placing other electronic components 10 in the first cavity 211 can effectively isolate the heat transfer between the oscillating crystal 14 and other components, thereby improving the stability and reliability of the oscillator.
[0060] In a specific embodiment, the oscillator also includes a heat absorption block 60, which is disposed in the second cavity 212, one side of the heat absorption block 60 is disposed on the shell 20, and the other side is against the oscillation crystal 14, for absorbing the heat generated by the oscillation crystal 14.
[0061] Specifically, the heat absorption block 60 is placed in the second cavity 212, and one side of the heat absorption block 60 is in contact with the oscillation crystal 14 to absorb the heat generated by the oscillation crystal 14. The presence of the heat absorption block 60 can effectively absorb the heat generated by the oscillation crystal 14 and prevent the heat from affecting the oscillation crystal 14, thereby improving the stability and reliability of the oscillator. One side of the heat absorption block 60 is in contact with the shell 20, which can promote the conduction and heat dissipation of heat. Connecting one side of the heat absorption block 60 to the shell 20 can accelerate the conduction and heat dissipation of heat, effectively transfer the heat generated by the oscillation crystal 14 from the second cavity 212 to the external environment, and further improve the stability of the oscillator.
[0062] Furthermore, the other side of the heat absorbing block 60 is in contact with the oscillating crystal 14, so that heat can be directly transferred from the oscillating crystal 14 to the heat absorbing block 60. The direct contact between the heat absorbing block 60 and the oscillating crystal 14 can maximize the heat transfer and ensure the stable working temperature of the oscillating crystal 14. As a part of the crystal oscillator, the heat absorbing block 60 can effectively absorb and conduct the heat generated by the oscillating crystal 14, thereby maintaining the stable performance of the oscillator.
[0063] In a specific embodiment, the oscillator further includes a heat sink 70 , which is disposed on the housing 20 and is used to absorb the heat on the housing 20 and dissipate it.
[0064] Specifically, the heat sink 70 is installed on the housing 20 of the oscillator to absorb the heat generated on the housing 20 and dissipate it to the external environment. Through the action of the heat sink 70, the oscillator can dissipate heat more effectively, keep the temperature of the oscillator within an appropriate range, avoid the influence of overheating on the performance of the oscillator, and ensure the stability and reliability of the oscillator. The combination of the heat absorption block 60 and the heat sink 70 can effectively control the temperature of the oscillator and prevent the oscillating crystal 14 from being affected by overheating.
[0065] In a specific embodiment, the heat absorption block 60 extends out of the housing 20 and fits with the heat dissipation element 70 .
[0066] Specifically, the heat absorbing block 60 extends out of the shell 20 and fits with the heat sink 70, which expands the heat dissipation area and improves the heat transfer efficiency. By expanding the heat dissipation area, the oscillator can more effectively dissipate heat to the external environment, reduce the operating temperature of the oscillator, and maintain the stability and reliability of the oscillator. The heat absorbing block 60 fits with the heat sink 70, ensuring effective contact for heat transfer and improving the heat dissipation efficiency. By fitting with the heat sink 70, the heat absorbing block 60 can transfer the absorbed heat to the heat sink 70 more quickly, and then dissipate it to the external environment, effectively reducing the temperature of the oscillator and improving its stability and reliability.
[0067] In a specific embodiment, the heat sink 70 is a metal sheet.
[0068] Specifically, the metal sheet has good thermal conductivity and heat dissipation performance, can effectively absorb and conduct heat, and dissipate it to the external environment. Selecting the metal sheet as the heat sink 70 can improve the heat dissipation efficiency of the oscillator, effectively reduce the operating temperature of the oscillator, and maintain its stability and reliability.
[0069] Furthermore, when the oscillator is working, the oscillating crystal 14 and other components will generate heat. The metal sheet, as a heat sink 70, contacts the heat absorbing block 60 and absorbs the heat transferred from the heat absorbing block 60. As the heat is absorbed, the metal sheet quickly conducts the heat to the entire surface of the metal sheet and quickly dissipates it to the external environment, completing the heat dissipation process. Due to the excellent thermal conductivity of the metal sheet, the heat dissipation process is very efficient, which can effectively reduce the operating temperature of the oscillator and improve its stability and reliability.
[0070] In a specific embodiment, the oscillator further includes a temperature sensor 80 , which is disposed on the housing 20 and extends into the electrical cavity 21 , and is used to control the temperature in the electrical cavity 21 .
[0071] Specifically, the temperature sensor 80 is used to monitor the temperature change inside the oscillator and control the temperature inside the oscillator according to the real-time temperature data. By monitoring the temperature inside the oscillator in real time, the temperature sensor 80 can detect temperature abnormalities in time and take corresponding measures to adjust the operating temperature of the oscillator to ensure its stability and reliability.
[0072] Furthermore, the temperature sensor 80 is mounted on the housing 20 of the oscillator and extends into the interior of the electrical cavity 21 so as to sense the temperature change inside the electrical cavity 21 in real time. By mounting the temperature sensor 80 on the housing 20 of the oscillator and extending into the interior of the electrical cavity 21, it can be ensured that the temperature sensor 80 can accurately sense the temperature change inside the electrical cavity 21, thereby achieving accurate control of the oscillator temperature. According to the temperature data monitored in real time by the temperature sensor 80, the temperature inside the oscillator can be adjusted by the control system to keep it within a suitable operating temperature range.
[0073] The above is only an implementation method of the present application. It should be pointed out that a person skilled in the art can make improvements without departing from the inventive concept of the present application, but these improvements are within the scope of protection of the present application.
