Abstract
A new electronic design for continuous motional series resonant frequency m onitoring of loaded quarto crystal resonators is presented. Using this circ uit, a low-cost method for a simple determination of equivalent circuit par ameters of quartz crystal resonators is described. Measurements made with t he proposed system on typical AT cut quarto crystals are in good agreement with those of an Impedance Analyzer.
