TYPICAL APPLICATION
FOR A PIERCE OSCILLATOR
SPECIFICATIONS
Specifications are typical at 25OC unless otherwise noted.
Specifications are subject to change without notice.
The low profile CX miniature surface mount crystal is ideal
for small, high density, battery operated portable products.
The CX crystal designed in a Pierce oscillator (single
inverter) circuit provides very low current consumption and
high stability. A conventional CMOS Pierce oscillator
circuit is shown below. The crystal is effectively inductive
and in a PI-network circuit with CD and CG provides the
additional phase shift necessary to sustain oscillation. The
oscillation frequency (f0) is 15 to 150 ppm above the
crystal’s series resonant frequency (fS).

RA is used to limit the crystal’s drive level by forming a
voltage divider between RA and CD. RA also stabilizes the
oscillator against changes in the amplifiers output
resistance (R0). RA should be increased for higher
voltage operation.

The CX crystal calibration tolerance is influenced by the
effective circuit capacitances, specified as the load
capacitance (CL). CL is approximately equal to:
CD x CG

CD + CG
NOTE: CD and CG include stray layout to ground and CS
is the stray shunt capacitance between the crystal
terminal. In practice, the effective value of CL will be less
than that calculated from CD, CG and CS values because
of the effect of the amplifier output resistance. CS should
be minimized.
