21、Page 1 STANDARD METHODS FOR MEASUREMENT OF THE EQUIVALENT ELECTRICAL PARAMETERS OF QUARTZ CRYSTAL UNITS, 1 kHz to 1 GHz SCOPE: Methods are described which permit determination of fhe values of the equivalent electrical parameters of piezoelectric quartz crystal units, utilizing automated measuring e

22、quipment. The methods described make use of standard coaxial terminations, standard calibrated mismatched terminations, coaxial air-lines, and short-circuit terminations for both calibration of the instrument/ test fHture error terms, and for verification of instrument performance. These coaxial sta

23、ndards, designed for 50 ohm systems, are readily available, and can be standardized in terms of national standards of impedance over very wide frequency ranges. The measurement methods described are intended to provide standard reference values of the electrical equivalent parameters. Manufacturers

24、and users may employ any other methods of measurement de si red,“ however, when other methods are used, the values obtained shall be correlated to those obtained by the reference methods. This standard is concerned only with the equivalent electrical network which approximates the admittance/ impeda

25、nce characteristic of a crystal unit over a relatively narrow range of frequencies near an isolated mode of vibration, at a particular excitation level. Non-linear amplitude behavior, or the presence of interfering modes of vibration, not only interfere with the actual measurement, also render the a

26、ccepted equivalent network representation invalid. INTRODUCTION The uses of piezoelectric crystal units in frequency control, filter and timing applications require accurate determination of the value of their equivalent electrical parameters. This document presents a reference method for but measur

27、ement of the parameters of crystal units, based upon the use of automated state-of-the-art instrumentation systems which have become available in recent times. Using these methods, the measured parameter values are referenced to coaxial, traceable standards of impedance, and are essentially independ

28、ent of the particular instruments used in the measurement. Two basic methods are described: one, utilizing a two-port transmission method, characterizes the crystal unit as a three-terminal network; the second, utilizing a single-port reflection method, characterizes the crystal unit as a two-termin

29、al device. Both methods yield the same values for the motional-arm parameter (RI, L1, and Cl), but the static capacitance parameters are different as discussed below. Section I describes the equivalent electrical networks which characterize the crystal unit as a two-port and as a one-port device, an

30、d lists the parameters necessary to define the network behavior. O EIA 512 85 m 3234600 0072838 T m EIA-5 1 2 Page 2 Section 1% presents a description of the two-port transmission measurement method recommended for characterizing the three-terminal equivalent network at frequencies below 100 kHz, wh

31、ere directional couplers are difficult to obtain. Section III presents a description of a single-port reflectometer method for determining the two-terminal equivalent network parameters from 100 kHz to 1 GHz. Section IV gives a description of the two-port s-parameter method for determining the two-p

32、ort network parameters, recommended for frequencies from 100 kMz to 1 GHZ. Section V describes the calculations required to obtain the equivalent network parameters from the corrected values of transfer admittance obtained by any of the methods of Sections II, III, or IV. All of the techniques of in

33、strument calibration, data correction, and data reduction require extensive calculations, and are based on the utilization of a large number of individual measurements, which would not be feasible without the use of automated, software controlled instrumentation and computerized data reduction. Howe

34、ver, it is the availability of these tools which permits the improved accuracy and reproducibility of results, and) renders previously used manual measurement methods obsolete. Section VI outlines measurement system considerations with respect to instrumentation and fixturing. H. THE PIEZOELECTRIC C

35、RYSTAL UNIT AND ITS ELECTRICALLY EQUIVALENT NETWORK A crystal unit consists of a mechanically resonant piezoelectric vibrator (usually a plate, bar, or tuning fork) with electrodes attached to or supported near to the element to excite one of its resonant frequencies. The electrical behavior of the

36、crystal unit, as evidenced by the electrical admittance (or impedance) observed from its terminals, over a narrow range of frequencies near a resonance, can be represented by an equivalent electrical network. When the resonant mode of interest is sufficiently isolated from other modes of motion, the

37、 parameters of the equivalent network may be considered to be independent of frequency, and the equivalency will be nearly exact over a frequency band of at least a few percent. (If the mode of interest is not essentially isolated, the methods of measurement presented may still be used to determine

38、the impedances of the unit, but any attempts to relate the frequency dependence of its impedance to the electrically equivalent network of Figure 1 will be futile!) Figure 1A shows the three-terminal equivalent-circuit representation of a crystal unit which is valid over a few percent band centered

39、at resonance for an isolated mode of vibration. There are six parameters shown: .- . - . : :., ., . - -“.: *: . i;:.; . . . .- EIA-5 12 Page 3 C13 = Static capacitance from pin 1 to enclosure C23 = Static capacitance from pin 2 to enclosure Co = Static capacitance from pin 1 to pin 2, including the

40、capacitance between electrodes and between support structures R1 = Series resonant resistance L, = Motional inductance Cl = Motional capacitance If the crystal unit is considered to be a two-terminal element (enclosure connection neglected), it has an electrical equivalent as shown in Figure 1B. The

41、 motional parameters (R1, L1, and Cl) are the same as above; however, the value of Co will include the series combination of Cl, and C, as well as some effects of the capacitance from enclosure to ground. The frequency dependence of device impedance will only be modeled as well as the various compon

42、ents of the composite Co are known. Consequently, the two-terminal equivalent circuit is recommended for use only in those applications where operation at a single frequency near series resonance is anticipated. The static capacitance values are quite easily measured by conventional means, as they a

43、re relatively independent of frequency and not related to the resonant properties of the vibrator. Co will be slightly influenced by the impedance of the measuring circuit, as the free and clamped values for piezoelectric materials are different, depending on the piezoelectric coupling coefficient;

44、for quartz crystals, however, the effect is small, and a quite satisfactory value of Co can be obtained, for example, as the average of a value measured a few percent below resonance, and a second value measured a few percent above anti-resonance. The trans-admittance (admittance between pins 1 and

45、2) of the crystal unit is quite accurately modeled by that of the equivalent network in Figure lA, over a band of frequencies extending several percent above and below resonance. Fortunately, this bandwidth is adequate to describe the behavior of almost any circuit in which the device will be used.

46、The admittance characteristic is shown in Figure 2A, which is the admittance-plane locus of the vector relationship . - +j OC, - . 11 I R1 1 y12 = Ri2 + (wL1 - -)2 OC1 This circular locus in the Y-plane clearly maps into a corresponding circular locus in the Z-plane, as shown in Figure 2B. There are

47、 several characteristic values which are commonly used in describing crystal units, whose relationship becomes clear from examination of Figure 2. The “fundamental“ constants which depend only on the motional properties of the vibrator are the series resonant frequency, f, and the values of Rl, L1,

48、and Cl, associated with the motional arm circuit. The other frequencies of interest are: EIA 512 85 36334laOO I072840 8 = EIA-512 Page 4 fm = frequency of minimum impedance fr = frequency of zero-phase, low impedance fa = frequency of zero-phase, high impedance fn = frequency of maximum impedance fp

49、 = parallel resonance frequency (lossless) Clearly, all of these frequencies depend to at least some degree upon the effective value of Co; since connection into any use-circuit will almost inevitably produce some additional stray capacitance at the terminals and therefore modify the effective Co value, best correlation of measurements will be obtained if the series resonant frequency, f, is referenced. A list of symbols used for the equivalent electrical network is given in Table 1. The values of effective resistance at each of the characteristic
