What is the definition of “Frequency Stability” and what is the “Frequency Stability” specification for these custom Ecliptek crystals?
Frequency stability is the amount of frequency deviation from the ambient temperature frequency over the operating temperature range. This parameter is specified with a maximum and minimum frequency deviation, expressed in percent (%) or parts per million (ppm). The frequency stability is determined by the following primary factors: Type of quartz cut and angle of the quartz cut. Some of the secondary factors include: mode of operation, drive level, load capacitance, and mechanical design. This parameter can be found on the respective custom Ecliptek part number specification sheet. This parameter is typically ±30ppm for the custom Ecliptek crystals used with ICS VCXO IC’s.
