John has a great Crystal/Oscillator tutorial on the IEEE website and other
mirrors, but it's in HTML format.

Does anyone know how to get a PDF copy of this (or PowerPoint, Word,  etc) so
it can be printed out?

thanks,
Said

I wish somebody could make a pdf of that, I don't have (and don't
want!) access to Powerpoint[1].

There's a nice PDF program called PDF Creator (freeware!) that you install like
a printer.  It will create a PDF of anything you print to it.
Get it at: http://www.pdfforge.org/products/pdfcreator

I just uploaded the .PDF version to Didier's FTP site.  Until he moves it to
the appropriate subdirectory, it can be accessed as follows:

ftp.ko4bb.com
user: manuals
password: manuals
filename: John_Vig_Quartz_Crystal_Oscillator_Tutorial.pdf

Size is about 2.3 MB.

It's a nice read, by the way.  Has very little to do quartz oscillators
specifically, despite its title.

If someone will point me to the HTML, I'll convert it to pdf.

Thanks!

It's much improved over the old paper copy I have.
