| | Crystal Equivalent Circuit - RF Cafe Forums |
Because of the high maintenance needed to monitor and filter spammers from the RF Cafe Forums, I decided that it would
be best to just archive the pages to make all the good information posted in the past available for review. It is unfortunate
that the scumbags of the world ruin an otherwise useful venue for people wanting to exchanged useful ideas and views.
It seems that the more formal social media like Facebook pretty much dominate this kind of venue anymore anyway, so if
you would like to post something on RF Cafe's
Facebook page, please do.
Below are all of the forum threads, including all
the responses to the original posts.

I wish to design and simulate a crystal oscillator. I have been having great difficulty obtaining typical crystal equivalent circuit values for whatever frequency.
Can anyone suggest a manufacturer that lists the equivalent circuit values for each of their crystals?
Other than measuring the values, is there an easier way of obtaining typical crystal equivalent circuit values?
Thankyou

Most manufacturers will specify Rm (series resistance at resonance), Co (holder capacitance) and of course Fo, so all you really need to complete basic model is either Cm, Lm or Q. Frerking lists the following typical Qs:
200 KHz Fundamental - 18e3 2 MHz Fundamental - 54e3 30 MHz 3rd Overtone - 1e5 90 MHz 5th Overtone - 85e3
Many manufacturers will allow you to specify Cm or Lm, but this is not typically specified on data sheet since it makes little difference for clock oscillator, where most crystals are used, and it would add cost to actually measure it in manufacturing.
Hope this helps.

Try also Fox Elecctronics: http://www.foxonline.com/
They have detailed specifications for their crystals and good application notres on their website. I had the sdame problem as you and they helped me a lot.
Good luck!
