Abstract
The electromechanical resonators made of piezoelectric crystals such as a quartz crystal are widely used for electronic devices. Their frequency–temperature characteristics are of primary importance for their applications to the frequency control devices. The present paper demonstrates numerical simulation for several types of resonators using 3‐D Finite Element Modelling. The results are compared with the theoretical values whenever they are available. As they are electronic devices, the equivalent circuit representation is often favourable for describing the admittance at the electrical terminals which enables the circuit analysis including the effect of the temperature change by using commercially available circuit simulators.
