Narrow deviation voltage controlled crystal oscillator for mobile radio

摘要

A linear sensitivity voltage controlled crystal oscillator of the type including a resonator coupled to a negative resistance generator. The resonator comprises a crystal connected in series with a voltage variable capacitance device. The response of the resonator is linearized by the addition of an inductance across the voltage variable capacitance device. A resistor is shunted across the crystal to prevent oscillation at spurious resonances of the resonator.
