Oscillator drift remains one of the most critical threats to precision timing in high-performance communication systems. In ...

The tool generates a sample schematic, although [Craig] deleted it and put his own design into the simulator. By running simulations, he was able to look at the oscillator’s performance. His first cut ...

Crystal oscillators are fundamental components in modern electronic systems, providing the precise timing necessary for communication, computation, and sensor network operations. Recent advances in ...

Examine a traditional Hartley oscillator circuit, and you’ll note its trademark: a tapped inductor that determines the frequency of oscillation and provides oscillation-sustaining feedback. Although ...

With loudspeakers, an important parameter is the frequency at which their cones resonate. This clever Arduino-based tester ...

Analog IPs are developed to meet a set of specific requirements, and to change its specifications for a different application, a significant amount of time and effort may have to be applied on ...

To alleviate the drawbacks of quartz oscillator technology, classic microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) materials are now being used to fabricate three-dimensional resonating structures. These ...

Fig 1. This Pierce-series resonant oscillator can reliably start at supply voltages as low as 2.4 V. It also draws very low current, ensuring long battery life. Fig 2. An oscilloscope photo shows the ...

Crystal oscillators are often one of the last components that a designer thinks about, but the wrong part can quickly kill a design. Moreover, searching through a wide variety of available oscillators ...
