“…A number of later works describe influence of driving current on aging of crystal resonators remarking essential advantages of "electrodeless" designs and stresscompensated (SC) cut resonators [1][2][3][4][5]. However some discrepancies in the obtained results don't allow safe estimations of the highest allowed drive level for the resonators.…”

The paper describes results of experimental study of influence of driving current on aging rate and noise properties of OCXOs based on SC-cut 3d overtone crystals. During the study two groups of 12 and 30 samples were tested under different condition: first at driving current raised stepby-step from 1.5 up to 3.0 mA, second at 3.0 mA sustained constant during the experiment. It was not revealed noticeable impact on aging of driving current up to 2.5 mA while 3.0 mA current degraded aging for most units. Phase noise level at close-tothe carrier offset is not sensible to drive level while the noise floor can be reduced to about -170 dBc at 3.0 mA exciting current.
