g - Compensated, Miniature, High Performance Quartz Crystal Oscillators

Hugo Fruehauf

Abstract: Sophisticated military electronic systems aboard helicopters, unmanned air vehicles, and missiles, must provide superior performance while subjected to severe environmental conditions. The greatest impact comes from dynamic environments—those that induce degradations while the military platform is in motion accomplishing its intended mission. Of these mobile disturbances, vibration, acceleration, and shock have the greatest influence on performance. In light of this fact, a chasm exists between the performance of such systems in the quiescent (stationary) state and the performance while dynamic (mobile). The technology described herein closes this gap—providing performance near theoretical quiescent limits while the platform is in the operational, dynamic state.
