Abstract
A crystal oscillator emulator integrated circuit comprises a first temperature sensor that senses a first temperature of the integrated circuit. Memory stores calibration parameters and selects at least one of the calibration parameters based on the first temperature. A semiconductor oscillator generates an output signal having a frequency, which is based on the calibration parameters, and an amplitude. An amplitude adjustment module compares the amplitude to a predetermined amplitude and generates a control signal that adjusts the amplitude based on the comparison.
