Abstract
Hysteresis causes the temperature dependent frequency characteristic of the crystal of a crystal oscillator to be different when the temperature is rising from a previous colder state and when the temperature is falling from a hotter state. A rising temperature-to-frequency mapping polynomial and a falling temperature-to-frequency mapping polynomial are generated and their evaluations are weighted based on a current temperature and past temperature(s). The weighted evaluations are combined and used in temperature-based frequency compensation of the crystal oscillator.
