Oscillators

A piezoelectric oscillator is a periodic signal source stabilized by a resonator. The first question that comes to mind is: which oscillator should I choose for which application?

Various output signal forms are accessible, such as sinusoidal (level 0 to 7 dBm), C-compatible MOS (Comple-mentary Metal Oxide Semiconductor) (V _a = 12 V, V _o 5 to 10 V), HC MOS (V _a = 5 V, V _o = 5 V), TTL (Transistor-Transistor Logic) (V _a = 5 V, V _o = 3.5 V) up to 100 MHz and ECL (Emitter Coupled Logic) (V _a = - 5 V, V _o ...
