Hi
If you have a *really bad* crystal, it will follow a very nice log aging cure.
A good crystal is much less predictable. The reason is fairly simple, the bad
crystal has a single dominant cause for it's aging. It missed a step somewhere
along the line and it's got a problem. A precision part
Hi, my name is Don. I have been lurking on this list for a while, so here is
my first post.
I am a hobbyist who has just built my second home-made quartz digital clock.
Both are based on a microcontroller that counts timer interrupts and uses
software tricks to allow me to tune the clock rate
