P17E-24.pdf 2021.3.1 Ceramic Resonators (CERALOCK) Application Manual Please read rating and CAUTION (for storage, operating, rating, soldering, mounting and handling) in this catalog to prevent smoking and/or burning, etc. Note P17E-24.pdf This catalog has only typical specifications. Therefore, please approve our product specifications or transact the approval sheet for product specifications before ordering. 2021.3.1 Introduction Ceramic resonators (CERALOCK) are made of high stability piezoelectric ceramics that function as a mechanical resonator. This device has been developed to function as a reference signal generator and the frequency is primarily adjusted by the size and thickness of the ceramic element. With the advance of the IC technology, various equipment may be controlled by a single LSI integrated circuit, such as the one-chip microprocessor. CERALOCK can be used as the timing element in most microprocessor based equipment. In the future, more and more applications will use CERALOCK because of its high stability non- adjustment performance, miniature size and cost savings. Typical applications include TVs, VCRs, automotive electronic devices, telephones, copiers, cameras, voice synthesizers, communication equipment, remote controls and toys. This manual describes CERALOCK and will assist you in applying it effectively. EU RoHS Compliant All the products in this catalog comply with EU RoHS.
