In last week’s post we defined and explored the different types of tunable resonators that are available. This week we take a look at more resonator types and discuss the pros and cons of each. Crystal Resonators Quartz crystals are used as high-quality electromechanical resonators due to their piezoelectric properties, that is, their ability to ..

A tunable resonator is a device used either to generate RF frequencies or select specific frequencies from a signal. It exhibits resonance in that it naturally oscillates at frequencies known as resonant frequencies. These oscillations can be either electromagnetic or mechanical. Tunable resonators are used in a wide range of radio devices, specifically tunable radios, ..
