Abstract

A temperature compensated Crystal Oscillator is widely used for the stable frequency source of mobile communication equipments. Recently, it has become necessary to reduce power consumption of TCXOs. In this paper, we have proposed a TCXO using weak inversion MOS transistors and have evaluated its fundamental characteristics.
