Abstract

We performed frequency response measurements of four tuning fork crystal oscillators with different sizes and analyzed their measured electrical equivalent circuit parameters of R, L, $C_S$, and $C_P$ as functions of the linear dimensions, length, width, and thickness. We observed that R and L showed an decreasing behavior with increasing length while $C_S$, and $C_P$ showed an increasing behavior. Similar dependences of the electrical parameters on thickness were also observed. On the contrary, any noticeable dependence of these parameters on width has not been found.
