LV-DS

Abbreviation for Low Voltage Differential Signaling. This type of circuit is used for serial transfers of data via low-amplitude differential signals. Since they can be applied for high frequencies.

LVDS output definition Output voltage level comparison

Lid

This refers to the lid on a ceramic package. The lid can be made of metal, ceramic, glass, or other material, and various lid sealing methods can be used.


Structure of ceramic package

Load capacitance

This is a crystal oscillation circuit's actual capacitance (series equivalent electrostatic capacitance) from the perspective of the crystal unit's two terminals. The oscillation output frequency is determined based on this capacitance. (See CL in the relevant figure at right).

Relation be tween crystal unit and crystal oscillation circuit Tuning fork crystal unit's load capacitance-frequency characteristics

Long term jitter

This refers to accumulated jitter. See "jitter".
