Abstract: An oscillator assembly includes an oscillator circuit that is configured to generate a frequency signal. A temperature compensation circuit is in communication with the oscillator circuit and adapted to adjust the frequency signal in response to changes in temperature. The oscillator and temperature compensation circuits are located within an oven. A heater and a temperature sensor in communication with the heater are also both located in the oven. The temperature sensor is adapted to directly control the heater in response to changes in temperature. In one embodiment, the oscillator components are mounted to a ball grid array substrate which, in turn, is mounted on a printed circuit board. In this embodiment, a resonator overlies the ball grid array substrate and a lid covers and defines an oven and enclosure for the resonator and the ball grid array substrate. The oscillator and temperature compensation circuit are defined on the ball grid array substrate.
