We demonstrate a tuneable, chip-scale wavelength reference to greatly reduce the complexity and volume of cold-atom sensors. A 1 mm optical path length micro-fabricated cell provides an atomic wavelength reference, with dynamic frequency control enabled by Zeeman shifting the atomic transition through the magnetic field generated by the printed circuit board (PCB) coils. The dynamic range of the laser frequency stabilization system is evaluated and used in conjunction with an improved generation of chip-scale cold atom platforms that traps 4 million 87Rb atoms. The scalability and component consolidation provide a key step forward in the miniaturization of cold atom sensors.
