The effects of any mechanically or electrically coupled modes should be taken into account. Except for any nonlinea

The frequency and quality of the unit under test

The circuit is reproduced For most applications the following conditions are valid: a) Within a couple of percent frequency range of the mode of interest, there are no effects of interfering modes.

For a one-port measurement, the stray capacitances are combined with Co and the equivalent circuit can be represented as shown in Figure 2.2b. Th

19、is circuit representation is also used for glass enclosed quartz crystals regardless of whether the two-port or one-port method is used. Since the stray capacitances will differ in each case, the values of Co will not be the same. (Fs) (the series resonance frequency of the series arm) is relatively

20、 independent of Co and any stray capacitance, it should be used to correlate EIA-512 one-port and two-port d measurements. When selecting crystals to correlate other measurement systems, select those units that do not show motional parameter dependency on small variations in drive level. Also select

21、 units that exhibit a good circle fit in the admittance plane. A good fit guarantees that there are no interfering modes of vibration over the frequency range used for the measurement. Units that are not “well behaved“ cannot be represented by the simplified equivaIent network. They can still be mea

22、sured using EIA-512 but attempts to correlate these measurements with other test systems will yield erroneous results. 2.2 CLASSIFICATION OF MEASUREMENT SYSEMS In the general case the quartz crystal unit must be treated as a three terminal network the third terminal being in the typical case a metal

23、 enclosure, which should be grounded. Three types of connection of the crystal unit are possible : -One-port (two-terminal) in which one of the pins (leads) is grounded while the enclosure is floating; -One-port (two-terminal) in which one of the pins (leads) is grounded and the enclosure is also gr

24、ounded; a -Two-port (three-terminal connection in which only the enclosure is grounded. EIA 512-1 90 3234b00 0072877 9 EIA-512-1 Page 4 The true values of the motional arms of the quartz crystal unit equivalent circuit (for the main resonance : series resonance frequency Fs, motional resistance R1 a

25、nd motional capacitance C1 or inductance L1) are practically independent of the type of connection. The type of connection strongly influences the distributed (static) capacitances. The influence of distributed capacitance is different in various measuring methods and different applications, so it i

26、s important to specify the crystal pin connection to be used. In the general case, the characterization of quartz crystal units requires many measurements made at different frequencies near series resonance, and it is rather complex to form an estimate of the equivalent circuit parameters that will

27、best approximate the electrical behavior of the unit. Fortunately, in most cases only a few of the crystal equivalent parameters need be determined, particularly in the production environment. The most important are two parameters: series resonance frequency Fs, and motional resistance R1; in a larg

28、e number of cases, these may be approximated measurement of zero-phase frequency fr and zero-phase insertion resistance Rr. These latter two parameters may be measured with limited accuracy by simple and fast single frequency methods. From the point of view of general principle the most important me

29、asuring methods may be classified as follows: Q A. Oscillator methods (also called active methods) in which the frequency of oscillation of special oscillator circuits, into which the crystal unit to be measured is connected, is measured and assumed to be the zero-phase frequency of the crystal unit

30、. B. Transmission methods in which the crystal unit parameters determined indirectly from measurements of the transfer function of the network formed by connecting the crystal unit (enclosure grounded) into a resistive network. Transmission methods may be divided into four subgroups: 1. Extremum tra

31、nsmission methods (ETM) in which is used only information about the magnitude of the transfer function. The crystal unit frequency is identified as that at which the extremum (maximum) output voltage occurs. 2. Phase transmission methods (PTM) in which we use information about the transfer function

32、phase. The crystal unit frequency is identified as that at which the output voltage phase is the same as that obtained during preliminary calibration) in the ideal case the output voltage is in phase with the input voltage) . In these methods amplitude information is not needed to establish frequenc

33、y of the unit, but must be obtained if the insertion resistance is to be calculated. Measuring sets using - or T- transmission networks are the most important examples of equipment used for ETM or FTM. 3. Vector transmission methods (VTM) in which information about both the amplitude and phase of th

34、e transfer function is needed. In contrast to the ETM and PTM, which are fundamentally single frequency measurements, VTM typically require measurements at several frequencies near resonance so that motional capacitance (or inductance) may also be determined. al 4. Scattering Darameter methods (SPM)

35、 in which all four of the two-port scattering parameters of the three-terminal crystal unit connection are determined, and fully corrected for linear errors in measuring system and fixtures, at several frequencies EIA 512-1 90 W 3234600 0072878 O W EIA-512-1 Page 5 near series resonance of the devic

36、e. Such measuring sets require the use of dual-directional couplers and vector detectors, such as those incorporated in network analyzers. C. Impedance (admittance) measuring methods in which one-port quartz crystal unit parameters are determined using the vector values of the crystal unit impedance

37、 (admittance) measured at several frequencies near resonance. The method of calculation is the same as for the SPM above, but the crystal is connected as a one-port (with one pin/lead grounded). Two subgroups of impedance measurement may be distinguished: 1. Direct immittance methods (DIM) in which

38、equipment is used which reads out directly impedance (or admittance values) (e.g., various bridges or vector immittance meters). 2. Reflection coefficient methods (RCM) in which the quartz crystal unit parameters are determined from the vector values of the reflection coefficient of the crystal unit

39、 connected to a system port of known impedance, at several frequencies. 2.3 AUTOMATED NETWORK ANALYZER METHODS Automatic two-port network analyzers have been developed for the general characterization of active and passive networks. These anaIyzers provide for the determination of the two-port scatt

40、ering parameters of the network under test, and provide for correction of the measured responses to take into account imperfections in the equipment by referring network parameters to the network analyzer .S-parameter instruments of this type are now available. For use as crystal measurement systems

41、, stable synthesized signal sources must be included in the system; some systems include such sources while others need to be modified for this use. Such systems provide for calibration at the measurement reference plane with coaxial impedance standards, and are capable of very accurate and reproduc

42、ible measurements. The use of the scattering parameter methods, originally developed for application to microwave systems, allows for the separation of the trans-immittance parameters from the effects of shunt elements, so test the C13 and C23 static capacitances may be separated from the transmissi

43、on characteristics, and determined separately. Also, the test fixture imperfections are to at least a first approximation removed from the measurement, as the “Calibration“ of the system is done at the measurement ports, and the error correction algorithms from the measurements the effects of the sy

44、stem up to the reference plane. These automatic network analyzer systems have proven to be the most satisfactory way of obtaining precise measurements of immittance over very wide frequency ranges. Either one-port reflection measurements or two-port transmission measurements may be made as desired.

45、For crystal unit measurements, the choice of one-port or two-port measurement is generally arbitrary, as the two yield essentially identical values for the motional parameters, differing only in the values of the static capacitances. As a guide, the following are general recommendations. L One-port

47、uction facility pose some unique problems. Generally, high through-put is required, and devices are checked against specified tolerances on a “go“ or “no-go“ basis. In most cases not all parameters are specified, and testing may be limited to include only those specified parameters together with any

48、 additional measurements needed to assess the general quality of the product. Obviously, all devices need to be tested against specified parameter value tolerances; quality assessment may be implemented on a sampling basis, especially if production quantities are large. The equipment used for produc

49、tion testing can be selected on the basis of device requirements; i.e. , if only frequency and resistance are specified, then relative1 simple oscillator or transmission test facilities are adequate. The degree of automation o ty the test equipment will depend upon the quantity of product involved. The advantage of higher capacitance and better reproducibility of data resulting from automated testing are usually sufficient justification in themselves. When some portion of the product will require measurement of L1 (Ci) values, and/or determination of load parameters, FI, RL, and
