Abstract
A method for optimizing power of a ranging sequence includes counting at least one cycle of a first clock during a Crystal Oscillator (XO)-mode to generate a first cycle count. A second clock is activated at an end of the XO-mode. The first cycle count is converted into a fractional correction value by multiplying the first cycle count by a ratio of a second period of the second clock divided by a first period of the first clock. A first alignment of the first clock to the second clock is determined at a beginning of the XO-mode. A second alignment of the first clock to the second clock is determined at the end of the XO-mode. An adjusted cycle count is determined by summating the fractional correction value with a summation of the first alignment and the second alignment divided by the first period.
