Abstract

A method of compensating for the temperature related frequency drift of an oscillator. The method comprises using an external reference frequency signal to derive oscillator compensation data over a range of operating temperatures, storing the oscillator compensation data in a first table, and, for a given operating temperature, using the first table to obtain corresponding oscillator compensation data and applying that data to provide compensation for the temperature related frequency drift. The method further comprises defining, for the range of operating temperatures, a series of temperature slots each sub-divided into a series of temperature bins. The step of using an external reference frequency signal to derive oscillator compensation data over the range of operating temperatures comprises
