Which of the following are not the characteristics of a crystal oscillator?(a) Highly stable with time(b) Highly stable with temperature(c) Highly selective(d) Frequency depends external resistors and capacitorsI have been asked this question in an internship interview.Question is taken from Crystal Oscillator-1 topic in chapter Oscillators of Analog Circuits

Answer»

Correct answer is (d) Frequency depends EXTERNAL resistors and capacitors

Explanation: The crystal OSCILLATOR is highly STABLE with time, highly stable with temperature, highly selective. The frequency of crystal is a constant REGARDLESS of output circuits. The frequency is dependent on the crystal shape which does not differ much at all.
