Quartz Crystal Based Oscillators Low Phase Noise Characteristics

Frequency generation is an essential function in practically all present-day commercial, industrial and military technologies. All oscillator signals contain some level of noise.

Although simple oscillators such as those constructed with resistor-capacitor (RC) or inductor-capacitor (LC) resonators are adequate for some circuits, many applications require the additional stability and lower noise provided by quartz crystal oscillators.
