In the previous part of this series, we had discussed some of the important specifications of a crystal such as crystal pulling range, drive level and crystal stability with respect to temperature ...

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 ...

The Colpitts oscillator is a time-tested design — from 1918. [The Offset Volt] has a few videos covering the design of these circuits including an op-amp and a transistor version. You can find the ...

Stochastic oscillator measures stock momentum, aiding buy or sell decisions. It ranges 0-100; over 80 suggests overbought, below 20 indicates oversold. Use alongside other indicators to enhance ...

Download this article in PDF format. What’s the first thing you think of when selecting electronic components? Chances are it’s the processor or something else central to the system. The timing ...

Crystal oscillators are incredibly useful components, but they come with one little snag: their oscillation is temperature-dependent. For many applications the relatively small deviation is not a ...
