Impact, LLC is a global manufacturer specializing in high-quality crystals and oscillators. Impact’s extensive product line includes both Thru-Hole and Surface Mount options, featuring:
- X – Quartz Crystal
- XO – Crystal Oscillator
- TCXO – Temperature Compensated Oscillator
- VCXO – Voltage Controlled Oscillator
- VCTCXO – Voltage Controlled Temperature Compensated Oscillator
- OCXO – Oven Controlled Oscillator
Impact offers quartz crystals across a wide frequency range. Crystals ranging from 16 kHz to around 500 kHz are categorized as low-frequency crystals due to their unique oscillating characteristics, distinct from the more common frequency range of 500 kHz to 10,000 kHz.
Low-frequency crystals resonate in the kHz range, sometimes even below 10 kHz, making them different from the MHz resonating crystals typically used today. Information on these rare, very low-frequency crystals and their oscillator circuits is scarce, reflecting their specialized and less common application.
