LRT - vibrating quartz crystals for very safe applications
LRT stands for our exclusive LOW ESR Resonator Technology and sets the standard in the manufacture of quartz resonators. The dimensions of the quartz resonator for generating a specific frequency are matched to the corresponding housing and the quartz resonator itself is sawn out of a synthetic quartz block of the highest purity using a cutting angle specified via 4 coordinates (normally AT-cut or AT-CUT). The resonator is then lapped in several stages, pre-metallised, mounted in the housing and then final metallised before the housing is sealed in a vacuum environment. That is the simplified theory. In practice, however, we rely on 31 patents for the production of the SMD LRT resonant crystals we supply and exclusively develop and manufacture resistance-optimised resonator designs ourselves, so that we achieve outstanding results. Customers who purchase LRT resonant crystals from us already appreciate this enormous advantage of our LRT technology. Compared to competitor products, our 100% tested LRT resonant crystals offer significantly lower resistances, which brings significant advantages to the user.
