| Abstract |
We performed frequency response measurements of four tuning fork crystal oscillators with different sizes and analyzed their measured electrical equivalent circuit parameters of R, L, C_S, and C_P as functions of the linear dimensions, length, width, and thickness. We observed that R and L showed an decreasing behavior with increasing length while C_S, and C_P showed an increasing behavior. Similar dependences of the electrical parameters on thickness were also observed. On the contrary, any noticeable dependence of these parameters on width has not been found. |
