Microdevice Technologies

Epson is driving the smart evolution of communications, energy, transportation, and manufacturing with precision quartz crystal timing and sensing solutions and efficient power-saving solutions, all built upon its proprietary device technology.

Core Technology

Epson is one of the world's largest manufacturers of crystal device. Our crystal devices are used across a wide range of electronic equipment and communication networks, from communication equipment and computers to digital cameras, automobiles, and mobile phone base stations. They also play a key role in supporting Epson products such as watches, robot force sensors, GNSS devices, and inertial measurement units (IMUs).
The crystals in these devices are made from synthetic quartz. Epson itself grows the synthetic quartz that is the foundation of our core technology. Here, we provide an overview of Epson's advanced manufacturing technology for synthetic quartz.
