Additional Details

The DSO321SR16.660M+/-30 crystal oscillator utilizes a quartz crystal resonator to generate a precise and stable frequency. The oscillator circuit typically includes an amplifier, feedback network, and automatic gain control (AGC) to maintain stable oscillation. The surface mount package allows for automated assembly, reducing manufacturing costs and improving reliability. The +/-30 ppm frequency tolerance indicates the maximum deviation from the nominal frequency over the operating temperature range and supply voltage variations. Lower ppm values indicate better frequency accuracy. The oscillator's performance characteristics, such as jitter, phase noise, and frequency stability, are critical for applications requiring high precision timing. KDS is a reputable manufacturer of crystal oscillators, known for their quality and reliability.
