  • AN100 - Crystal Selection Guide (Rev. C)
    PDF, 110 Kb, Revision: C, File published: Nov 26, 2013
    RF systems are highly dependent on accurate clocks for correct operation. A deviation in clock frequency is directly reflected as a deviation in radio frequency. This can degrade RF performance, violate legal requirements or in worst case lead to a non-functioning system. The scope of this application report is to give the design engineer a quick guide on how to design, tune and verify the
