It could be. One problem with temperature compensation is that the various components of an oscillator have differing thermal masses, thermal conductivities and hence thermal time constants. . . This is one of several reasons that the best approach in designing an oscillator -- or any other temperature sensitive circuit -- is to use components that each have as small a temperature coefficient as possible. That is, first minimize the inherent drift. Then, if you must, compensate what drift remains. Roy Lewallen |
