High–Q Quartz Crystal Oscillators Analysis by a 5–Terminal Network Method
نویسنده
چکیده
Abstract: A straightforward method to simulate high–Q quartz crystal oscillator is derived in this paper. The oscillator circuit is expressed under a canonical 5–terminal network which can be easily handled. The oscillator behavior is then described under the form of a nonlinear characteristic polynomial whose coefficients are functions of the circuit components and of the oscillation amplitude. The steady state oscillation amplitude and frequency are determined by solving the polynomial in the frequency domain.

متن کاملFrequency Stability of 1×10 in a Compensated Sapphire Oscillator Operating above 77 K
We report on tests of a compensated sapphire oscillator (CSO) which shows frequency-stable operation at temperatures above 77 K[1]. The frequency stability for this oscillator shows an apparent flicker floor of 7.5×10 for measuring times between 3 and 10 seconds, and stability better than 2×10 for all measuring times between 1 and 100 seconds. These values are approximately the same as for the ...
