Piersce Crystal Oscillator

    Piersce Crystal Oscillator

  • Thw colpitt's oscillator can be modified by by using the crystal to behave as an inductor. The circuit is called Pierce Crystal Oscillator.
  • The crystal behaves as an inductor for a frequency slightly higher than the series resonance frequency Fs
  • The two capacitors C1,C2 required in the tank circuit along with a crystal as an inductor are used, as htey are used in Colpitt's oscillator.
  • As only inductor gets replaced by the crystal, which behaves as an inductor, the basic working principle of pierce crystal oscillator is same as that of colpitt's oscillator
  • The practical transistoriced pierce crystal oscillator

  • The resistances R1,R2,Re provide d.c bias while the capacitor Ce is emitter bypass capacitor. RFC (Radio Frequency Choke) provides isolation between a.c and d.c operation. Cc1 and Cc2 are the coupling capacitor.
  • The resulting circuit frequency is the set by the deries resonant frequency of the crystal.
  • Change in the supply voltage, temparature, transistor parameters have no effect on the circuit operating conditions and hence good frequecy stability is obtained.

Miller Crystal Oscillator

Miller Crystal Oscillator Miller Crystal Oscillator Similar to modifications in Colpitt's oscillator, the Hartley oscillator circuit can be modified, to get Miller crystal Oscillator In Hartley oscillator circuit, two inductors and one capacitor is required in the tank circuit. One inductor is replaced by the crystal which acts as an inductor for the frequencies slightly greater then the series resonant frequency. The tuned circuit of L1 and C is offtuned to behave as an inductor i.e. L1. The crystal behaves as other inductance L2 between base and ground. the Internal capacitance of the transistor acts as a capacitor required to fullfill the elements of the tank circuit The crystal decides the operating frequency of the oscillator.

Electronic oscillator division types and use

Electronic oscillator division types and use Electronic oscillator division types and use Introduction to oscillator An oscillator is a amplifier and it is a close loop circuit or network. It uses the Positive feedback. It is not require the externel signel and generate the a desired frequency A oscillatpr acts like generator, It oscillates the constant amplitude and frequency. Oscillator can generate the frequency upto gigahertz. Classification of the Oscillators Oscillators are classified based on the type of waveforms generate from the oscillator, range, frequency, parameters used. Based on Output waveforms. Based on circuit components. Range of operating frequency. Based on feedback uses or not uses Types of oscillatprs LC Oscillator Har...
