NATO Supply Class 5955 is a classification within NATO Supply Group 59, which is dedicated to Electrical And Electronic Equipment Components.
Specifically, NATO Supply Class 5955 focuses on Oscillators And Piezoelectric Crystals.
Oscillators are electronic devices that generate repetitive electronic signals, typically in the form of a sine wave or a square wave. They are used in various applications such as communication systems, timing circuits, and frequency synthesis.
Piezoelectric crystals, on the other hand, are materials that generate an electric charge when subjected to mechanical stress or pressure. They are commonly used in electronic devices for their ability to convert mechanical energy into electrical energy and vice versa. Piezoelectric crystals find applications in sensors, transducers, and actuators.
In summary, NATO Supply Class 5955 encompasses the procurement and classification of oscillators and piezoelectric crystals, which are essential components in electrical and electronic equipment.
Includes Crystal Units, Processed Unmounted Crystals, Crystal Controlled Oscillators and Noncrystal Controlled Oscillators
Excludes Crystal Controlled Oscillators and Noncrystal Controlled Oscillators which meet the definition of the term "electronic module" as defined for FSC 5963 and Microcircuits
Note-Mounting hardware, included in classes of this group, includes such specially designed items as brackets, holders, retainers, etc. Excluded from classes in this group are such hardware items as screws (Class 5305), bolts (Class 5306), studs (Class 5307), washers (Class 5310), rivets (Class 5320), and other common items indexed to specific classes, other than in Group 59. The FSC indexes and structure will govern the classification of items used on or with mounting hardware cited above.
