Phase noise measurements in dual-mode SC-cut crystal oscillators.
This paper describes the phase-noise characteristics and the analysis model of an SC-cut dual-mode oscillator. The C mode phase-noise sideband levels of -124 dBc at 10 Hz and -154 dBc at 10 kHz have been demonstrated using a dual-mode oscillator that simultaneously excited the C and B mode of a 10-MHz, third overtone, SC-cut crystal resonator. Based on Leeson's model, a phase-noise analysis model for dual-mode oscillators has been proposed also. Actual phase-noise levels of the C mode in dual-mode oscillation corresponded well to results calculated from the proposed model.
