Systems and methods for switching reference crystal oscillators for a transceiver of a wireless device

Abstract

Systems and methods are disclosed herein that relate to a wireless device that intelligently uses different reference crystal oscillators (XOs) for a Phase Locked Loop(s) (PLL(s)) in a transceiver of the wireless device. Embodiments of a method of operation of a wireless device comprising a first XO that operates at a first reference frequency and a second XO that operates at a second reference frequency that is greater than the first reference frequency are disclosed. In some embodiments, the method of operation of the wireless devices comprises making a decision as to whether to configure a receiver of the wireless device to use the first XO or the second XO and configuring the receiver of the wireless device to use the first XO or the second XO in accordance with the decision.
