Abstract
A crystal oscillator fabrication method includes depositing mounting cement onto first and second mounting pads on a substrate to thereby define first and second electrode adhesion bumps. First and second electrodes of a crystal oscillator are electrically connected to the first and second mounting pads by contacting the first and second electrodes to the first and second electrode adhesion bumps and then curing the adhesion bumps. Next, mounting cement is deposited onto the first electrode and onto a portion of the first electrode adhesion bump to thereby define a top electrode adhesion extension. The top electrode adhesion extension is then cured.
