ABSTRACT:
A dual mode tuning digitally controlled crystal oscillator includes a crystal resonator, an oscillation circuit, a coarse mode tuning unit and a fine mode tuning unit. The crystal resonator resonates at substantially a predetermined resonance frequency. The oscillation circuit generates an oscillation frequency based on the resonance frequency to output the oscillation frequency. The coarse mode tuning unit performs a coarse mode tuning operation on the oscillation frequency in response to a coarse mode tuning signal, and the fine mode tuning unit performs a fine mode tuning operation on the oscillation frequency in response to a fine mode tuning signal, to substantially compensate for a frequency error of the crystal resonator. The coarse mode tuning control unit controls the coarse mode tuning signal to output a controlled coarse mode tuning signal to the coarse mode tuning unit, in response to the fine mode tuning signal.
