TCXO: How it works and why
A TCXO is a temperature-compensated crystal oscillator that is used whenever particularly high stability within a variant temperature environment is required, i.e. when the frequency deviation of the oscillator must be minimal over its entire operating temperature range. Oscillators using AT quartz crystal plates, so called “blanks”, are the most economical solution to create a

Lithium Polymer: More Safety Thanks to Ceramic Separators
Whether you speak of lead-acid, alkaline or lithium batteries, none of them can work without a separator which parts the positively and negatively charged electrodes. The separator prevents direct contact between the two poles and thus avoids a short circuit of the battery. It is therefore considered the essential safety feature of a cell. Even
