In the quest for an accurate frequency standard there are many options depending on your budget, but one of the most affordable is an oven controlled crystal oscillator (OCXO). [RF Burns] has a video ...

Do you remember your first instrument, the first device you used to measure something? Perhaps it was a ruler at primary school, and you were taught to see distance in terms of centimetres or inches.

The circuit was designed to create a frequency generator that consists of 7 steps during the operation. Crystal Oscillator – an electronic circuit made of one or more crystals or quartz located in the ...

Recently, for some reason, I have been seeing a lot of references to the good old MM5314/5/6 clock ICs from National Semiconductor. These were some of the first 40-pin LSI (large-scale integration) ...

In frequency counters, the gating time allotted for counting is often too short to resolve low frequencies. A phase-locked loop could be used to multiply the input frequency. But in some cases, the ...
