I'm looking at the TXCO design in https://www.analog.com/media/en/technical-documentation/application-notes/an12fa.pdf, and see something I don't understand. In figure 6, is the 100k resistor on the Collector of the transistor supposed to be there? (see attached image) What does it do? On a breadboard it actually works of the collector is connected to 5V, but not with the 100k.... |

That almost has to be a typo. Probably wanted 100 ohms or so. |

Strange, it's 100R in the Oct. 1985 version with 30k/100k for the data slicer. edit: From rare goldmine, 1990 Linear Applications Handbook, in a time before pdf's and the Internet became a thing, it is 100R with 100k/100k but 0.01uF for the data slicer. Something is changing part values around, I've seen three different versions. |

Why is the AN calling it a TXCO? Also a typo or a different reality? |
