Crystal Oscillator – f vs. T characteristic • XO (crystal oscillator) • does not contain means for reducing the crystal’s f vs. T characteristic • OCXO (oven controlled crystal oscillator) • crystal and other temperature sensitive components are in a stable oven • oven temperature adjusted to the temperature where the crystal’s f vs. T has zero slope • over 1000X improvement over the crystal’s f vs. T variation • Large package, high power consumption – not suitable for mobile/battery powered devices • TCXO (temperature compensated crystal oscillator) • temperature sensor generates a correction voltage • the correction voltage applied to a variable reactance in the crystal network (ex. varactor) • the reactance variations compensate for the crystal’s f vs. T characteristic • about 20X improvement over the crystal’s f vs. T variation
