Galileo quartz clock

Abstract

A quartz oscillator for use in the Galileo experiment (orbiter and Probe) for Jupiter mission 1982 are described. This oscillator has achieved significant performance breakthroughs by the use of an SC cut, double rotated, crystal in a titanium dewar flask. Some of the performance parameters as well as the design feature of the oscillator are presented.
