  • Patent number: 9240793
    Abstract: A method for stabilizing the output frequency of an oscillator comprises providing a temperature model to capture the temperature characteristics of a second oscillator when measured by a first oscillator, measuring a value indicative of the frequency of the second oscillator by using the first oscillator, determine a temperature of the second oscillator based on the measured value indicative of the frequency of the second oscillator and the temperature model, determining a compensation amount for the frequency of the first oscillator from the determined temperature, and providing a compensated output frequency of the first oscillator as a stabilized output.
