Crystal Oscillators in Liquid-Cooled Servers: Enabling Stable Computing Power

With the rapid development of artificial intelligence, big data, and high-performance computing, power consumption and heat dissipation challenges in data centers are becoming increasingly critical. Liquid-cooled servers, as a next-generation cooling solution, are emerging as a key direction for global computing infrastructure. In this process, crystal oscillators play a vital role by providing precise and stable timing performance.

Key roles of crystal oscillators in liquid-cooled servers include:

1. Accurate Clock Control: CPUs, GPUs, and high-speed interconnect chips in liquid-cooled servers rely on precise timing to ensure stable computation and data transmission.
2. High-Speed Communication Synchronization: Supporting protocols such as PCIe, Ethernet, and InfiniBand requires low-jitter, low-phase-noise clock sources to maintain smooth networking performance.
3. Wide Temperature Adaptability: Operating in extreme environments of liquid cooling, crystal oscillators must maintain stability across wide temperature ranges, ensuring reliability in low-temperature and high-humidity conditions.
4. Enhanced Efficiency and Reliability: A stable timing reference minimizes power losses caused by timing errors and helps extend the lifespan of server components.
