The difference between differential crystal oscillator and passive crystal oscillator

Differential crystal oscillators use two signals with completely opposite phases to each other, thereby eliminating common-mode noise and achieving a higher-performance system. Passive crystal oscillators are essentially passive components that rely on external circuits (such as the oscillator inside the MCU) to drive them. Load capacitance and resistance must be matched for stable operation.

What is a crystal oscillator, what is it used for, and where is it used?

The crystal oscillator generates its own clock signal, which serves as a clock reference for various microprocessor chips. The crystal oscillator is equivalent to the heart of these microprocessor chips. Without the crystal oscillator, these microprocessor chips will not work.

What does the crystal oscillator rely on to start oscillation?

Simply put, the driving force behind the oscillation of a crystal oscillator is electricity. We need to place a crystal oscillator in a complete circuit and power the circuit to generate a loop current. From then on, the crystal oscillator begins to "beat" steadily and rhythmically.
