A technique provides a clock source that meets accuracy requirements, allows the use of a low cost resonator, provides a wide range of output frequencies, and provides suitable phase noise performance. The technique generates a clock signal having a target output frequency using a controllable oscillator having at least one continuous frequency range of operation. The technique dynamically adjusts a reference control value based on a voltage for adjusting a frequency of the clock signal around a frequency determined by the reference control value. The reference control value is adjusted to be approximately within the center of an actual pull range corresponding to the controllable oscillator and a voltage control input of the controllable oscillator. The effective pull range of the controllable oscillator is continuous across the at least one continuous frequency range of operation.
