Integrated Device Technology has announced the availability of all-silicon cmos oscillators in wafer and package forms. According to the mixed signal semiconductor specialist, it is the only company ...

Crystals usually operate at fundamental frequencies up to about 15 MHz. Whenever higher frequencies are required a frequency multiplier is placed after the crystal oscillator. The resulting output ...

040TSMC_OSC_01 is a CMOS inverter of a Pierce-type variation with an integrated Temperature Compensated Crystal (Xtal) Oscillator (TCXO) and a 32.768 ...

Use of standard CMOS processes, design, and packaging methods yields the smallest high-performance, low-cost programmable IC oscillator to date. It took the combined experiences of several types of ...

We are always glad to see [Ken Shirriff] tear into something new and this month he’s looking inside a quartz oscillator module. Offhand, you’d think there’s not much to these. A slab of quartz and ...

Fig 1. One of the most popular crystal oscillator types is the inverter crystal drive circuit. Fig 2. Shown is the crystal reactance of the third-overtone XO’s third tone. Fig 3. Analog multiplier ...

Developing stable oscillator circuits for logic systems once was a daunting analog-design task. Now, commonly available oscillator standard cells make the job relatively simple: You add a crystal and ...
