The CX4 family of surface mount crystals are ideal for
small, high density, battery operated portable products. The
CX4 crystal designed in a Pierce oscillator (single inverter)
circuit provides very low current consumption and high
stability. A conventional CMOS Pierce oscillator circuit is
shown below. The crystal is effectively inductive and in a PI-
network circuit with C
D
and C
G
provides the additional
phase shift necessary to sustain oscillation. The oscillation
frequency (f
0
) is 50 to 250 ppm above the crystal’s series
resonant frequency (f
S
).
Drive Level
R
A
is used to limit the crystal’s drive level by forming a
voltage divider between R
A
and C
D
. R
A
also stabilizes the
oscillator against changes in the amplifiers output
resistance (R
0
). R
A
should be increased for higher voltage
operation.
Load Capacitance
The CX4 crystal calibration tolerance is influenced by the
effective circuit capacitances, specified as the load
capacitance (C
L
). C
L
is approximately equal to:

NOTE: C

include stray layout to ground and C
S
is the stray shunt capacitance between the crystal
terminal. In practice, the effective value of C

will be less
than that calculated from C

values because
of the effect of the amplifier output resistance. C

should
be minimized.
