a time measurement unit, configured to measure the accumulated elapsed time of the oscillation after the start of the oscillation of the piezoelectric resonator;
a correction value operator, configured to obtain a correction value of the frequency setting value based on the accumulated elapsed time of the oscillation measured in the time measurement unit and the prediction data stored in the storage unit; and

Abstract
In an OCXO, which outputs an oscillation frequency by oscillating a crystal resonator, a correspondence relationship between an oscillation frequency and an elapsed time at a beginning after a start of oscillation of a first crystal resonator is acquired. Based on the acquired result, data after the beginning and corresponding to a correspondence relationship between an accumulated elapsed time of the oscillation and the oscillation frequency after the start of the oscillation is obtained. Based on the accumulated elapsed time of the oscillation and this data, a frequency setting value is corrected. While an output frequency of the first crystal resonator fluctuates in association with the elapsed time, the output frequency is corrected by the frequency correction value corresponding to the accumulated elapsed time, thereby stabilizing the oscillation frequency.
