16 Mhz Crystal Oscillator (2 Pieces)

It is an HC49/S 16MHz crystal oscillator. The crystal oscillator has uses in microprocessor clock, network card, various consumer electronics, etc.

A 16 MHz crystal oscillator is a component used in electronic circuits to generate a stable clock signal with a frequency of 16 million cycles per second (16 MHz). It typically consists of a crystal resonator and associated circuitry that produces the oscillations necessary for precise timing in microcontrollers, processors, and various digital devices. This clock signal serves as a fundamental timekeeping reference for synchronizing the operations of these electronic systems.

Applications :

1. Microcontrollers and Microprocessors: Many microcontrollers and microprocessors rely on a 16 MHz clock signal to synchronize their operations and execute instructions at a specific rate.
2. Digital Communication: In devices like modems, routers, and communication modules, a 16 MHz oscillator helps maintain accurate timing for data transmission and reception.
3. Timing Circuits: It serves as a reference clock in timing circuits for tasks such as generating accurate time delays, controlling sequential operations, and managing data transfer rates.
4. Consumer Electronics: Some consumer gadgets, such as digital watches, clocks, and certain sensors, may use a 16 MHz oscillator for timing functions.
5. Test and Measurement Equipment: Oscilloscopes, signal generators, and other test instruments often rely on precise clock signals for accurate measurements and signal analysis.
6. Industrial Automation: Control systems, robotics, and automated machinery use oscillators for synchronized operation and time-sensitive tasks.
7. Wireless Communication: Radio frequency devices, including certain types of transmitters and receivers, may employ 16 MHz oscillators to maintain specific frequencies for wireless communication.
