Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of all-crystal oscillator technology, and particularly to all-crystal oscillators and their manufacturing methods.

Background Art

[0002] A crystal oscillator is a quartz crystal oscillator made of quartz material, commonly known as crystal oscillation. When this quartz crystal sheet is subjected to the action of an applied alternating electric field, it generates mechanical vibration, and when the frequency of the alternating electric field is the same as the natural frequency of the quartz crystal, the vibration becomes stronger. This is a reaction of the crystal resonance characteristic. Utilizing this characteristic, a quartz resonator can be used instead of an LC (coil and capacitor) resonance circuit, filter, etc. Quartz resonators have advantages such as being small, lightweight, highly reliable, and having high frequency stability, so they are applied to household appliances and communication devices. Since crystal oscillators have extremely high frequency stability, they are mainly used as resonance elements in oscillation circuits where a very stable frequency is required.

[0003] Due to stress causing changes in the characteristics of crystal oscillators and affecting their performance, it is necessary to enhance the resistance of crystal oscillators to stress. Currently, all crystal oscillators on the market are formed using a ceramic base and a metal package, and the formed airtight structure is used to protect the crystal oscillator with piezoelectric effect in combination with a base having a certain resistance. Its stress resistance depends on the ceramic base. And the manufacturing production of crystal oscillators depends on the ceramic base, using a flexible conductive silver paste to achieve circuit conduction and combining solid crystals to reduce the influence of stress on the crystal oscillator. This has led to the weak ability of crystal oscillators to resist stress, low production efficiency, and high production costs.
