Most designers are familiar with oscillators (Pierce-Gate topology), but few really
understand how they operate, let alone how to properly design an oscillator. In practice,
most designers do not even really pay attention to the oscillator design until they realize the
oscillator does not operate properly (usually when it is already being produced). This should
not happen. Many systems or projects are delayed in their deployment because of a crystal
not working as intended. The oscillator should receive its proper amount of attention during
the design phase, well before the manufacturing phase. The designer would then avoid the
nightmare scenario of products being returned.
