The present disclosure provides for a system and method for compensating an electronic oscillator for one or more environmental parameters. A method may comprise segmenting test data received from an output signal of the oscillator and generating at least one correction voltage to thereby compensate the oscillator for one or more environmental parameters. A system may comprise at least one multi-function segmented array compensation module configured to receive one or more output signals from an oscillator and generate one or more correction voltages to thereby compensate the oscillator for environmental parameters. The system may also comprise one or more sensors and a user EFC.

System and method for multifunction segmented array compensation for oscillators

Systems and methods of using an artificial neural network processing module to compensate a control voltage and create a linear output response for an electronic oscillator to produce a target frequency. The artificial neural network processing module includes one or more neurons which receive one or more inputs corresponding to the control voltage. The artificial neural network processing module is configured to provide a correction based at least in part on the control voltage and pre-calculated DAC values. The pre-calculated DAC values are determined in part by predetermined or predefined pull ranges and linear control voltage transfer functions. The artificial neural network processing module can preferably achieve a control voltage tuning linearity better than 0.5% linearity over an entire tuning range of +&#x2212;75 ppm.
