Abstract

A temperature compensated crystal oscillator in which the base emitter voltage of transistors in an integrated circuit is used to provide substantially linearly temperature sensitive outputs which are employed to generate a series of polynomial functions of Chebyshev-like form which are summed and used to control a varicap diode in the oscillator feedback path.
