Impact of parasitic capacitance and parastic inductance on DC and crystal oscillator
Hi,
With DC ... neither capacitance nor inductance has an effect.
But then you talk about oscillator ... which can not be DC.
So are you talking about the DC power supply signals of an oscillator circuit or the (AC) oscillating signals?
Klaus
yes, DC power supply of an AC circuit such as PA, LNA Osc and etc.
Hi,
A capacitor at the DC power supply is a benefit in either case.
It stabilizes the supply voltage while it has no negative influence on EMI/EMC ...
It rather improves EMI/EMC.

Dear KlausST, refer back to my earlier question, do we need to reduce parasitic capacitance and inductance on the DC supply line of the PA, LNA and Osc ? the DC supply lines are placed closed to RF in this case..
If DC tracks are close to RF-especially High Power Level RF-lines, you have to protect DC supply line from RF perturbation.Otherwise RF signals can disturb the oscillator.
But avoiding the circuit from this perturbation is quite difficult due to limited space for decoupling capacitor/choke inductor. Best way is to move it as much as possible from RF or dirty circuits.
