A picture element conversion system consists of a simple electric circuit for reducing or enlarging an image at high quality. The system includes a cumulative adding unit for cumulatively adding a multiplying factor, in synchronization with clock signals, and outputting the added data and a carry signal. A contiguous picture element output unit temporarily holds a picture element data array along one of two scanning directions and outputs at least two contiguous picture element data. A typical value calculation unit divides a section defined by the contiguous picture element data into sub-sections and obtains typical values corresponding to each sub-section from the picture element data output from the contiguous picture element output unit. A typical value selecting unit selects and outputs only one value from among the typical values output from the typical value calculation unit in accordance with the added data of the cumulative adding means, and a control unit controls the contiguous picture element output unit and the cumulative adding unit in accordance with the carry signal and an externally supplied selection data to determine whether a reduction conversion or an enlargement conversion should be carried out.

Image enlargement/reduction processor and method

An AT-cut quartz resonator is disclosed, wherein the length l, the width w and the thickness t of the quartz crystal plate are respectively chosen in the directions of an electrical axis (X-axis), an optical axis (Z'-axis) and a mechanical axis (Y'-axis), the width-to-thickness ratio w/t is chosen in the range of 2.0 to 2.8 and the length-to-thickness ratio l/t is chosen less than 25. Consequently, an AT-cut quartz resonator of miniature size having high Q-values of the major mode and excellent frequency-temperature characteristics of the vibration frequency is realized.

AT-Cut quartz resonator, with w/t=2.0 to 2.8, l/t&lt;25

A rectangular AT-cut quartz resonator comprising a quartz crystal plate rotated about 35.degree. around the X-axis, has dimensional ratios w/t and l/t respectively in the range of 3.1 to 3.7 and 14.5 to 16.2, where the length l, width w and thickness t are respectively along the X-axis, Z-axis, and Y-axis.
