PORTLAND, Ore.— Integrated Device Technology Inc. has introduced what it claims is the world's most accurate all-silicon CMOS oscillator with the industry's highest frequency accuracy, measured in ...

There have been many changes in the electronics industry since the digital revolution began over 60 years ago, but one thing has remained constant until recently: the reliance on crystal and ceramic ...

It took the combined experiences of several types of CMOS silicon designers to come up with the smallest high-performance low-cost microelectromechanical-system (MEMS) oscillator on the market. This ...

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

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 ...

In this paper, the authors present a design of a minimum phase noise current controlled oscillator in CMOS technology. Owing to their high degree of controllability, the second generation current ...

CMOS ring voltage controlled oscillator with combined delay stages is presented. Initially, the general condition of oscillators is discussed then two common inverters are introduced and their delay ...

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 ...
