Secondary vibration damping type crystal oscillator circuit

A secondary vibration damping type crystal oscillator circuit comprising:

• an oscillating resonant circuit including a crystal unit functioning as an inductor component, and first and second capacitors;
• and
• an oscillating transistor that feedback-amplifies an oscillating frequency by the oscillating resonant circuit,
• wherein the secondary vibration damping type crystal oscillator circuit is formed as a Colpitts type oscillator circuit, in which the crystal unit is connected between base and collector terminals, the first capacitor is connected between emitter and collector terminals, and the second capacitor is connected between emitter and base terminals of the oscillating transistor,
• wherein the secondary vibration damping type crystal oscillator circuit is configured to set a vibrational frequency in principal vibration mode of the crystal unit as an oscillating frequency, and to damp oscillation at a vibrational frequency in secondary vibration mode that is close to the principal vibration mode,
• wherein a region between the emitter and collector terminals or a region between the emitter and base terminals of the oscillating transistor includes a reactance parallel circuit, in which an LC series circuit including an inductor and a capacitor is connected in parallel to the first or second capacitor,
• wherein the reactance parallel circuit has resonant characteristics such that the reactance parallel circuit is made capacitive at an oscillating frequency in the principal vibration mode, and a resonant frequency of the LC series circuit corresponds to the vibrational frequency in the secondary vibration mode.
