FDC2212-Q1: Oscillator impact on accuracy of measurement

Part Number: FDC2212-Q1

Hi team,

Could you advise how and how much does Oscillator accuracy impact the measurement accuracy?

And could you give me a guideline for me to determine the oscillator requirement. 

regards,

  • Hello, 

    Any noise or jitter on the oscillator will translate directly to the measurement. If you need high accuracy, it is best to get a high resolution oscillator. Additionally, temperature drift of the oscillator will impact the measurement so it is is important to have a low drift over temperature for high accuracy systems. Here are the specs on the internal oscillator: 

    For high resolution applications, we recommend using an external oscillator with better performance.
