The heart of the MCG is a crystal oscillator encased in in a temperature-controlled "oven" to ensure the best performance under an ideal temperature condition for crystal oscillation. This generates an extremely accurate 10MHz clock signal which is within ±3 ppb of frequency temperature characteristics and within 0.1 ppm of frequency precision. Remarkable performance from a remarkable product.
