BJT low voltage latch PUBLIC

Interesting to see you are doing low voltage work. Reminds me of my early days designing wristwatches, had to do a 1MHz Xtal osc, phase lock down to 1kHz LC osc, then CR dividers to drive 1Hz motor, all from a 1.4V mercury cell. I was allowed 7uA total current drain. Then I superseded my own work with a CMOS design.....See USP 3,609,579 and 3,749,937.

Thanks! Lotta math there. H transforms. Ralph and Terry went on a course. I just did the leccy bits. The LC tuned circuit is held momentarily by appling a current equal to that in L, delaying it until the next Xtal osc cycle. I ended up using double the current to get it within a half cycle.
