Correct, i
Has anyone thought about removing both the linear terms and quadratic
terms in the drift, by utilizing the temperature sensor readings
available on many of the latest motherboards?
Crystal oscillators tend to have both a linear bias and a quadratic bias,
determinate upon temperature, leaving a
