| XO - Oscillator
| 20 - 100 ppm
| Those requiring a general-purpose clock, such as consumer electronics and computing, for driving:
*microprocessors
*digital state machines
*video and audio clocking
*low-bandwidth data communications, e.g., USB and Ethernet
|-
| VCXO - Voltage Controlled Oscillator
| < 50 ppm
| Clock synchronization in:
*telecom
*broadband
*video
*instrumentation
|Clock outputs are “pullable,” i.e., their frequency can be “pulled” or fine-tuned. VCXO outputs can be pulled using an analog voltage input.

will make this:

Device Type	Stability Rating	Applications	Comments
XO - Oscillator	20 - 100 ppm	Those requiring a general-purpose clock, such as consumer electronics and computing: microprocessors digital state machines video and audio clocking low-bandwidth data communications, e.g., USB and Ethernet	This was the first product category to be supplied by MEMS oscillators
VCXO - Voltage Controlled Oscillator	< 50 ppm	Clock synchronization in: telecom broadband video instrumentation	Clock outputs are “pullable,” i.e., their frequency can be “pulled” or fine-tuned. VCXO outputs can be pulled using an analog voltage input.
TCXO – Temperature Compensated Oscillator and VC-TCXO - Voltage Controlled TCXO	0.5 - 5 ppm	High-performance equipment that requires very stable frequencies: networking base stations femtocells smart meters GPS systems mobile systems	VC-TCXO outputs are pullable
SSXO – Spread Spectrum Oscillator	20 - 100 ppm	Microprocessor-based clocking: desktop PCs laptops storage systems USB	Reduces EMI in systems that are clocked from the oscillators
FSXO – Frequency Select Oscillator	20 - 100 ppm	Those requiring frequency agility and multi-protocol serial interfaces.	Clock output frequencies are changeable with hardware or serial-select inputs, reducing BOM and simplifying the supply chain
DCXO – Digitally Controlled Oscillator	0.5 - 100 ppm	Clock synchronization in telecom broadband video instrumentation	Clock output frequencies are pulled by digital inputs.

The result:

An Award For You[edit]

		The Exceptional Newcomer Award
		For your great work on your first article Microelectromechanical system oscillator, I present to you this lovely award. Anna Frodesiak (talk) 09:34, 6 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I'm back from my holiday and I'd like to echo that message. You've done an excellent job and I hope we can see more of your great contributions. WilliamH (talk) 14:12, 6 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Pile-on praise from me as well. It's always good to see new content-focused editors who can do great work. wctaiwan (talk) 15:24, 6 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
As you can see, getting so much review and laud from so many experienced users, that happens not regular. Well done. Hopefully we see you next time in the chat channel and helping you with uploading the images. ;) mabdul 08:19, 7 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Your recent edits[edit]

Hello. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. You could also click on the signature button or located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you. --SineBot (talk) 03:16, 11 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, I didn't know. Thank you! I'm clicking on the four tildes right now :-)Pnchou (talk) 03:21, 11 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

October 2017[edit]

Hello. This is a message to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions, such as the edit you made to Application lifecycle management, did not appear constructive and has been reverted. Please take some time to familiarise yourself with our policies and guidelines. You can find information about these at our welcome page which also provides further information about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. If you only meant to make test edits, please use the sandbox for that. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you may leave a message on my talk page. Thank you. Walter Görlitz (talk) 22:32, 1 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

There's an edit notice on my talk page that states conversations about edits to specific articles should be kept at that article. However, you appear to have missed that. You also missed the hidden comment at the top of the list of the ALM software suites, which is what this warning was for. It reads:

Please only add systems that satisfy Wikipedia's notability requirements and have a Wikipedia article.

Addition of entries without articles will be reverted without warning.

The fact that I did provide an edit summary also helps understand the issue: First, neither codeBeamer nor Intland Software have an article. Second, Endevor has an article while Endeavor does not so why was it changed? So if you're still a bit confused, go to the article's talk page and continue the discussion there. Walter Görlitz (talk) 22:54, 1 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Walter, I'm sorry, but I'm a novice Wikipedia editor, so I'm sure exactly how to "go to the article's talk page and continue the discussion there". The reason codeBeamer and Intland Softwre don't have an article is because they kept on getting deleted, as I understnad it. Next, Can you pls explain why is Jira specifically worthy? Finally, I don't understand what you're saying about Endevor/Endeavor. If you're referring to you saw an edit when I was inserting codeBeamer by Intland, that was only becaue that was my shortcut editing method to ensure I don't mess up the existing table when inserting codeBeamer.

Walter, I think I understand you're asking me why I changed "Endevor" to "Endeavor"? That was by accident. You see, all I was trying to do was to insert codeBeamer by Intland without messing up the exisiting table. Endevor by CA Techologies was the first table entry. In moved it one row down, I accidentally misspelled "Endevor".

Back to codeBeamer by Intland Software. I have a proposed codeBeamer article that Intland would like to post. Could you pls advise how to get around the "chicken and egg" problem? Does Intland need to first successfully post a codeBeamer article before adding themselve to the table in the Application Lifecycle Mgmt table? Or can both tasks occur at the same time?

Understood. To go an article's talk page, start by going to the article, in this case, application lifecycle management. Depending on your skin, the layout will be different, but look for a "tab" that has "Talk" on it. Click on that. In this instance, it's talk:Application lifecycle management.

While I understand that you think codeBeamer should have an article, it doesn't. Write the article first would apply to this situation. There's no chicken and egg problem here. First, we need the chicken and then, you can link to it. Alternately, you could try to gain support to add products that don't have articles, but that too would have to be done on the article's talk page. Walter Görlitz (talk) 05:46, 2 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The Endevor and Endeavor issue was that when you made the edit, you somehow changed the spelling and it broke a link. I don't know how, but it's clear that it happened.

I recognize that you likely didn't intend to break the link, which was the disruptive element, but it did happen. Walter Görlitz (talk) 05:46, 2 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you Walter for your very helpful clarification. I'll work on positng a codeBeamer article first. I apologize for inadvertently breaking the Endevor link while trying to add codeBeamer w/o messing up the existing tabel. Last, now that I understand how to dialogue with you by going to [talk:Application lifecycle management], does this mean I should specifically go to the Tools and Vendors section by clicking on the Edit button and I need to sign off as [User:PNChou|Nancy Chou]] (talk) 11:08pm, 1 October 2017 (PST)?
