Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of quartz crystal oscillators, in particular to a quartz crystal oscillator with dual-frequency output. Background Art

[0002] Quartz wafers, which are made of silicon dioxide, have a very stable natural frequency and piezoelectric effect. They are a core material widely used in clock frequency devices. Quartz crystal oscillators are clock frequency generators that use quartz wafers as oscillator sources. Its frequency is determined by the thickness of the quartz wafer. The thinner the quartz wafer, the higher the frequency; conversely, the thicker the quartz wafer, the lower the frequency. However, the circuit has many clock frequency requirements, not fixed frequency points. Ordinary quartz crystal oscillators can usually only provide one frequency output. However, some circuit functional modules do not have a single demand for clock frequency. They require multiple quartz crystal oscillators, which increases both the cost and the space volume of the circuit. How to integrate and package some commonly used clock frequencies together, so that only one quartz crystal oscillator can output two frequencies, has become a difficult problem in the clock oscillator industry.
