Based on some requested info from respondants, here is more about the
proposed Crystal Oscillator book.
The book will introduce the basic concepts of crystal oscillator
theory, describe their operation, and explore their various
applications. Special attention will be given to environmental and
operational parameters (such as keeping the crystal inside a
temperature-controlled "oven" for increased frequency stability).
In addition, there will be material on the use of crystal-controlled
oscillators in embedded systems.
I am not at liberty to reveal the author at this time since the book is
not yet approved by our publishing commitee. But it is expected to be
about 350 pages for $59.99.
