Download or read book Design of Crystal and Other Harmonic Oscillators written by Benjamin Parzen and published by . This book was released on 1983 with total page 504 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Presents quantitative design techniques for a wide range of harmonic oscillators, with emphasis on crystal oscillators. Discusses both theory and practical ``cookbook'' procedures and covers oscillator frequency stability, output power, and resonator drive power. Offers algorithms that can be programmed into a relatively simple computer to obtain an oscillator design. Also reviews basic theory for circuit networks, oscillator models, and small and large signal transistor characteristics.
