http://www.cardinalxtal.comThe term “frequency jitter” has become popular in the last few years to define the short-term stability of a frequency source. A ...

Stable, accurate reference frequencies are basic to almost all digital electronics. The most common references combine quartz crystals with clock-generator circuits, often employing a PLL ...

Microchip has combined a chip-scale caesium atomic clock for good accuracy with a ovened crystal oscillator for good phase noise, in a through-hole package measuring 0.4 x 50.4 x 12.7mm (2 x 2 x ...

Clock speed is equivalent to data movement in applications that receive and process hundreds of megabytes of data each second. Applications involved in moving enormous volumes of data include cellular ...

To ensure the authenticity of the Galileo navigation messages, the Open Service navigation message authentication (OSNMA) mechanism requires a loose synchronization between the receiver clock and the ...

Is the end of the quartz crystal near? Probably not. However, with the availability of new integrated bulk-acoustic-wave (BAW) devices, crystals are going to be replaced in many clock and timing ...

Circadian rhythms, the daily activity cycles exhibited by most organisms, are sustained even in the absence of outside cues. Feedback models involving multiple loops have been proposed to be involved ...
