Abstract

PURPOSE:To completely eliminate a data error by latching temperature compensation data for a period of reception of an external control signal so as not to generate a change in an output frequency of the transmitter in the digital temperature compensated piezoelectric oscillator during that period thereby improving the accuracy of transmission data. CONSTITUTION:A temperature sensor 1 senses temperature information and the sensed information is converted into a digital signal by using an A/D converter 2. The digital temperature information is given to a ROM 3, in which the information is stored. A rewritable EEPROM is preferred for the ROM 3 but other ROM may be adopted. In a conventional oscillator, an output of the ROM 3 is converted into an analog signal by a D/A converter 6 and given to a voltage controlled piezoelectric oscillator 8 via a low pass filter 7, but in this embodiment, an output of the ROM 3 is given to a latch circuit 4 and temperature compensation digital data changed finally are locked by an external signal so that an analog voltage applied to the oscillator 8 is unchanged during the period of receiving a control signal.

When temperature compensation is performed and the frequency changes stepwise in this way, especially in digital communication, the phase changes during the transmission period, so the transmission data changes and a data error occurs. There is a risk. Therefore, in order to smooth the temperature compensation during the transmission period, a method in which the signal obtained by converting the temperature compensation data from digital to analog is put into a circuit with a large time constant (low-pass filter etc.) is taken, but it is still insufficient. . Therefore, the present invention provides a digital temperature-compensated piezoelectric oscillator having a function of stopping temperature compensation for a certain period and not updating the temperature compensation during that period.

FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing the structure of the present invention. Temperature information is detected by the temperature sensor 1, and the temperature information signal is converted into a digital signal by the A / D converter 2. The digitized temperature information is input to the ROM 3. The ROM 3 stores temperature compensation data corresponding to the temperature information. ROM3 is a rewritable EEP
Although a ROM is often used, another ROM may be used. Conventionally, the output of the ROM 3 is converted from a digital signal to an analog signal by a D / A converter 6, and is connected to a voltage controlled piezoelectric oscillator (VCXO) 8 via a low pass filter 7. The low-pass filter 7 between the D / A converter 6 and the voltage-controlled piezoelectric oscillator 8 is a low-pass filter having a large time constant so as to moderate the change of the analog signal which changes for each latch. In the present invention, the output of the ROM 3 is connected to the latch circuit 5 and locked by the temperature compensation digital data which is changed last by the control signal from the outside so that the analog voltage applied to the voltage controlled piezoelectric oscillator does not change during the control signal period. ing. As a result, during a certain period of the external control signal, the output frequency of the digital temperature-compensated piezoelectric oscillator does not change even if new temperature compensation data is input due to the temperature change during that period. In this embodiment, the switch 9 that short-circuits the input and output of the low-pass filter 7 is switched by the external control signal. However, the digital signal is latched by the external control signal, and the compensation data at that time is stored in the D / A converter 6. Although analog conversion is performed, the low-pass filter 7 has a time constant, and the compensation voltage changes even during the control signal period. Therefore, the low-pass filter 7 is short-circuited, and when it is latched, it becomes a predetermined temperature compensation voltage and is input to the voltage controlled oscillator 8 to prevent a frequency change during the control signal period. The control circuit 5 is
It is a circuit that controls the latch circuit 4 and the switch 9 of the low-pass filter 7 by a control signal from the outside.

FIG. 2 is a timing chart showing the timing of temperature compensation according to the present invention. As the ROM output data, temperature compensation data corresponding to the temperature data from the temperature sensor is updated at regular intervals. When a control signal is input from the outside, the last temperature compensation data is continued until the control signal stops. That is, the temperature compensation data is not updated within that period. When the control signal from the outside is stopped, the latest temperature compensation data is updated. When the external control signal is input, the switch 9 switches the low-pass filter to the through state, and the analog signal does not pass through the low-pass filter. As a result, the frequency that has been gradually changed becomes the predetermined temperature compensation voltage immediately during the control signal input period and is input to the voltage controlled piezoelectric oscillator.

In the present invention, when used in a wireless device, temperature compensation is stopped for a certain period, for example, during the transmission period, and the compensation amount at the start of the transmission period is held. That is, the frequency is kept unchanged during the transmission period. In this way, no phase change occurs during the transmission period, so that a data error can be prevented. For example, it is an effective means in digital communication such as TDMA. Further, it is not limited to this, but it is an effective means in the field of communication, or in the case where precision measurement is performed and accuracy is deteriorated when the frequency or phase of the clock changes for a certain period.

As a result, the accuracy of the transmitted data was improved and there were no data errors. Further, not only wireless devices but also measuring devices, whose accuracy is deteriorated due to changes in frequency and phase in a short period of time, have wide applications.
