Variation Over Temperature

CF and SBS vary over temperature. The optimized QMC correction values shift over temperature. For best performance, the system should monitor board or ambient temperature and apply a temperature compensation adjustment to the QMC parameters to maintain best performance. Figure 2-9 and Figure 2-10 show the temperature slope of the QMC parameters. As before, the QMC-Phase has the most variation. In general, the parameter slope is linear with respect to temperature. Table 2-1 lists the temperature slopes across the frequency range.
