    摘要: The temperature compensated timing signal generator comprises a crystal oscillator (12; 112) configured to generate a reference time signal, and a divider circuit (14, 114) arranged to receive the reference time signal as input and to output a coarse time unit signal, the coarse time unit signal having an actual frequency deviating from a desired frequency as a function of temperature of said crystal oscillator. The signal generator also includes a high frequency oscillator (16; 116) configured to generate an interpolation signal having a frequency (f RC ) greater than the frequency (f XT ) of the crystal oscillator. A finite state machine (24; 124) computes a deviation compensating signal as a function of temperature, the signal comprises an integer part representative of an integer number of pulses to be inhibited or injected in the divider circuit (14; 114) and a fractional part representative of how much the output of a new time unit signal pulse should further be delayed in order to compensate for any remaining deviation.

    摘要: Systems, methods, and assemblies to provide clock signals to electrical components of downhole tools are provided. In one example, an oscillator assembly may include a silicon-based oscillator having a variable capacitor circuit. The silicon-based oscillator may provide an output signal at a frequency within a range of frequencies. The oscillator assembly may also include control circuitry electrically coupled to the silicon-based oscillator. Moreover, the control circuitry may include a temperature input that receives a temperature corresponding to the silicon-based oscillator. The control circuitry may also include a control signal output electrically coupled to the silicon-based oscillator. The control signal output may be used to change a capacitance of the variable capacitor circuit based on the temperature received by the temperature input to maintain the output signal of the silicon-based oscillator within the range of frequencies.

    摘要: An electronic circuit has a supply voltage generation circuit (100) and a crystal oscillation circuit (10) driven the supply voltage generation circuit (100). The supply voltage generation circuit (100) comprises: a first voltage generation circuit (110) for creating a reference voltage (Vref1), and a second voltage generation circuit (130) for creating said supply voltage (Vreg) to have a predetermined relationship with said reference voltage (Vref1). The second voltage generation circuit (130) comprises: a differential amplifier (140) for amplifying the difference between said reference voltage (Vref1) and a comparison voltage (Vref2); a constant-current source (150-2); a circuit having a voltage-control transistor (132) to which the constant current of said constant-current source (150-2) is supplied, and which has one end connected to said constant-current source (150-2); and an output transistor (134) which is connected between another end of said voltage-control transistor (132), and a circuit node being at a predetermined second potential, the resistance of said output transistor (134) being controlled by the output of said differential amplifier. The comparison voltage (Vref2) is output from said one end of said voltage-control transistor (132), using a first potential as reference, while said supply voltage (Vreg) is output from said other end of said voltage-control transistor (132). The constant current is set to a value within a saturated operating region of the voltage-control transistor (132), so that the sum of the magnitude of variation of potential difference between said comparison voltage (Vref2) and said supply voltage (Vreg) which are potentials at respective ends of said voltage-control transistor (132) with a variation of temperature within a guaranteed operating temperature range and one of the magnitude of variation of said reference voltage (Vref1) of said first voltage generation circuit (110) with a variation of temperature within a guaranteed operating temperature range and the magnitude of variation of said comparison voltage (Vref2) of said voltage-control transistor (132) with a variation of temperature within a guaranteed operating temperature range, is the same as the magnitude of variation of an oscillation-stopping voltage Vsto of said crystal oscillation circuit (10) with a variation of temperature within a guaranteed operating temperature range.

    摘要: An electronic clock comprises a usual oscillator (4) and a more accurate oscillator (1). The usual oscillator (4) generates a first frequency (Fx) which causes the electronic clock to operate and the more accurate oscillator (1) generates a second frequency (Fo) which is used as a reference frequency. Referring to the second frequency, the first frequency (Fx) is measured by a frequency measurement circuit (3) and a deviation (D) of the first frequency from a design frequency (F D ) is calculated by a processor (6). According to the deviation, time correction of the electronic clock is performed. Therefore, even if an actual oscillation frequency of the usual oscillator (4) is not stable precisely, the accurate time correction can be achieved.
