What is an oscillator labeled with on a pcb?
I see a couple I might wanna rip out of a dead pcb, but I'm not sure. Are they labeled with an x?
Come on, I know some of you people here know this.
X usually means x-tal, or crystal (just like xmas is christmas).
Yup, thank you Lawrence. I actually just got back from my hardware class at aschool and my teach confirmed this for me.
Although, I don't too many people have prejudicial feelings against crystals like they do the lord.
Are you kidding? Damned hippies and their damned crystals! "auras" my ass! I hate them more than I hate xtians!
Well, that's a lie, but neither of them are invited to my party!
