minus-square@skillissuerlinkEnglish1•1 month agopiezo crystal is electric motor. you input deformation of the crystal and get potential difference on opposite sides. other way around also works
minus-square@NegativeInf@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglish2•1 month agoOh! Gotcha! Makes sense. Forgot about crystal vibrations for clockworks. Thanks!
minus-square@skillissuerlinkEnglish2•1 month agoit’s a special case there, because for frequencies in question mechanical quartz resonator has much higher Q than any electrical resonator you can practically build. that is, mechanical properties of piezo crystal stabilize voltage oscillations
piezoelectricity is just simple electric motor
