	Microcontroller Clock—Crystal, Resonator, RC Oscillator, or Silicon Oscillator? - Maxim/Dallas
		Silicon oscillators are typically a fully integrated version of the RC oscillator with the added benefits of current sources, matched resistors and capacitors, and temperature-compensation circuits for increased stability.
		RC oscillators, in contrast, provide fast startup and low cost, but generally suffer from poor accuracy over temperature and supply voltage, and show variations from 5% to 50% of nominal output frequency.
		Silicon oscillators are more precise than discrete component RC oscillator circuits, and many provide comparable accuracy to ceramic resonator-based oscillators.

	U.S. Patent: 5565819 - Accurate RC oscillator having modified threshold voltages - October 15, 1996
		Oscillator circuits are used in a myriad of applications in the electronics industry for providing clock and other timing signals to electronic circuitry such as microprocessors, microcontrollers, flip-flop circuits, latch circuits, etc. RC oscillator circuits typically include a control circuit coupled to the interconnection between a series resistor-capacitor (RC) network.
		One technique for building an RC oscillator is to use a conventional NE555 timer (the 555 timer), manufactured by National Semiconductor, as the circuit that controls the charging and discharging of the capacitor of the RC network.
		Oscillator circuit 10 further includes voltage modifying circuits 24 and 25 for respectively generating modified high and low threshold voltages applied to comparators 16 and 18 based upon the overshoot (of voltage V.sub.H) or undershoot (of voltage V.sub.L) of the oscillatory signal appearing at circuit node 12 when flip flop 20 switches.

	RC oscillator - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Electronic oscillators are often designed around an LC tank circuit, a tuned circuit formed with an inductor and a capacitor.
		In this circuit, two RC circuits are used, one with the RC components in series and one with the RC components in parallel.
		More-sophisticated oscillators measure the output level and use this as feedback to control the gain of the voltage-controlled amplifier within the oscillator.

	Colpitts oscillator
		Both the Armstrong and the Hartley oscillators have a tendency to be unstable in frequency because of junction capacitance.
		The Colpitts oscillator is very similar to the shunt-fed Hartley oscillator, except that two capacitors are used in the tank circuit instead of a tapped coil (figure 2-15).
		The major difference between the LC and RC oscillator is that the frequency-determining device in the RC oscillator is not a tank circuit.

	OSCILLATORS
		Oscillators are classified according to the waveshapes they produce and the requirements needed for them to produce oscillations.
		In an oscillator, a portion of the output is fed back to sustain the input, as shown in figure 2-1.Enough power must be fed back to the input circuit for the oscillator to drive itself as does a signal generator.
		For an RC phase-shift oscillator, the amplifier is biased for class A operation to minimize distortion of the wave or signal.

	oscillators
		Colpitts oscillators are somewhat similar to the shunt fed Hartley circuit except the Colpitts oscillator, instead of having a tapped inductor, utilises two series capacitors in its LC circuit.
		Hartley oscillator are inductively coupled, variable frequency oscillators where the oscillator may be series or shunt fed. Hartley oscillators have the advantage of having one centre tapped inductor and one tuning capacitor.
		The voltage controlled oscillator is tuned across its band by a "clean" dc voltage applied to the varactor diode to vary the net capacitance applied to the tuned circuit.

	AVR Freaks :: View topic - Using internal RC oscillator for USART clock source
		If you use the internal oscillator as some do, you will need to fine tune it (using the calibration byte).
		It is generally recommended to use a crystal for heavy duty comms because the baud rate error can be kept to pretty much 0% with the right crystal at pretty much all baud rates.
		And it is also good to keep in mind, that in different AVRs, one of the internal oscillators is calibrated with a factory preset value, which assumes some specific supply voltage and temperature.

	[No title]
		In this type of oscillator a capacitor is charged at a defined rate then, when it reaches a set threshold, it is quickly discharged to a lower threshold when the discharge circuit switches off and the capacitor again charges.
		One type of comparison is that of the probability of finding the object which is oscillating at a given distance x from the equilibrium position.
		For the quantum mechanical case the probability of finding the oscillator in an interval Dx is the square of the wavefunction, and that is very different for the lower energy states.
