In designing a pierce cmos oscillator using a cmos inverter with a quartz
crystal and loading capcitor c1 and c2, is there a design rule regarding the
amount of gain margin needed to insure that oscillator starts properly?
I know that an oscillator is suppose to satify the Barkhusen criteria which
says the gain of the inverter time the gain of the feedback must exceed 1 and
that the feedback has to be in phase or 360 degress.
Is there a general rule of thumb regarding the open loop gain and phase margin
test?
In looking at crytal manufacturers application note, I have run into what is
call the negative resistance test in which a resistor is inserted in series
with the crystal and the resistance is increased until the oscillator stop
working. Using this methode, the rule of thumb that I have seen is the
negative resistacnce is suppose to be at least 5 to 10 time the equivalent
series resistance of the crystal.
Which bring me back to, is there a general desgin rule when using the open loop
gain and phase margin test .
