FCom / News & Events
FCom (Fuji Crystal) will exhibit at electronica 2026, taking place from November 10–13, 2026, at Messe München in Munich, Germany. Visit FCom at Booth A6.667/4. The exhibition will bring together FCom’s quartz crystals, oscillators and RF filtering portfolio, with a particular focus on custom crystal engineering for demanding electronic designs.
Under the theme “Precision Starts with the Blank,” FCom will show how crystal-level design, manufacturing processes and circuit matching work together to address signal quality, frequency stability and application-specific requirements. Visitors will be able to discuss both standard product selection and customized solutions with the FCom team.
A central part of the showcase will be FCom’s approach to custom crystal engineering. Grinding, polishing, surface finish and electrode geometry are optimized to improve resonator Q and support low phase noise performance. Modal simulation and electrode optimization help suppress unwanted resonances, supporting cleaner signal generation in demanding circuits.
The exhibit will also highlight engineering for real operating environments. Crystal cut angles can be tailored to reduce frequency drift around a target operating temperature, while analysis of mounting structures and mechanical resonances helps guide design improvements to reduce vibration effects.
FCom’s development process begins with the customer’s requirements and continues through circuit modeling, parameter matching, and package and process optimization. Key equivalent-circuit parameters, including motional resistance (Rm), motional inductance (Lm), motional capacitance (Cm) and shunt capacitance (C0), are considered alongside performance, reliability, size and cost. In-house engineering, automated manufacturing, parameter validation and fast sample support help customers move from specification discussions to evaluation.
Quartz Crystals, Oscillators and RF Filters
Alongside these engineering capabilities, FCom will present three main product groups:
- Quartz crystals: quartz crystal resonators and tuning fork crystals for timing applications, including compact designs and low-load-capacitance options.
- Oscillators: crystal oscillators, TCXOs, VCXOs and OCXOs addressing requirements for low power, low jitter, low phase noise and frequency stability.
- RF components and filters: SAW resonators, SAW filters and crystal filters, with filtering solutions for RF, IF and GNSS applications and engineering support for customized requirements.
Selected product highlights include quartz crystal resonators with load capacitance down to 4 pF, tuning fork crystals with load capacitance down to 3 pF, and crystal oscillators with supply voltage down to 0.9 V. These options support designs with tight power and space budgets. Specifications and available combinations depend on the selected model and operating conditions.
FCom has also introduced the FCO-6LH and FCO-2LH 312.5 MHz differential crystal oscillators for optical transceivers and high-speed networking designs. The 2016 and 2520 package options respectively use high-fundamental quartz technology with LVDS or LVPECL outputs. Read the 312.5 MHz differential oscillator product announcement for configuration details and datasheets, and contact FCom to review the frequency, interface and performance requirements of your reference-clock design.
The exhibition will connect these capabilities with requirements across consumer electronics, industrial and automotive systems, telecom and test equipment, network synchronization and GNSS, RF and high-speed digital systems, and aerospace and defense. Discussions will cover low power consumption, timing noise, temperature performance, holdover, aging and vibration sensitivity.
Visitors will also see a perspective on the evolution of crystal technology, illustrated by a 15 kHz resonator manufactured in 1978, a 148 kHz model from 1993 and today’s compact crystal designs. The display highlights how packaging and product formats have evolved alongside changing electronic design requirements.
