What happens if I operate a crystal outside of its specified temperature range?
ICM recommends that you do not operate a crystal outside of its specified temperature range. The most notable change will be a greater frequency drift due to the increased temperature extremes. Another and more serious problem that can occur is activity dips. Activity dips can cause the oscillator to stop oscillating at a specific temperature.
