Abstract:
A temperature-compensated crystal oscillator includes a crystal resonator; and an oscillator circuit for performing temperature compensation. The oscillator circuit has a temperature sensor unit that measures an ambient temperature of the crystal resonator, a temperature compensation unit that outputs a first voltage for temperature compensation based on the measured temperature, a high-temperature load capacitance adjustment unit that outputs a second voltage for temperature compensation based on the temperature measured in a high temperature area exceeding a particular temperature range, an oscillator unit having first and second variable capacitance elements used for temperature compensation within a particular temperature range, third and fourth variable capacitance elements used for temperature compensation in the high temperature area, and an oscillation integrated circuit (IC) connected to the crystal resonator to perform an oscillation operation, and a buffer that amplifies the output from the oscillator unit.
