Accuracy of Frequency
Deviation
The accuracy of the frequency deviation using the XTAL pulling method is about
±
20% if
the following tolerances are considered. One important aspect is that the values of C
0
and C
M
of typical crystals are strongly correlated which reduces the tolerance of the fre-
quency deviation.
