E01ch03 PDF

This document contains circuit diagrams for two crystal oscillator circuits. Circuit (a) uses a crystal at its fundamental frequency from 1-10MHz. Circuit (b) is designed for a third overtone crystal between 10-25MHz by adding an RC network to suppress higher multiples of the fundamental frequency. Both circuits use a comparator and feedback network to sustain oscillations. The document provides component values and descriptions of how each circuit is designed to operate within its intended frequency range.
