Abstract

The present invention relates to an oscillator outputting two triangle waves having the same amplitude and whose phases are inverted; and a pulse width modulator using the oscillator. A capacitor 3 is charged or discharged by a charge pump circuit 2 controlled by a Schmitt circuit 1, and a voltage integrated by a two-output differential amplification circuit 6 is positively fed back to the input of the Schmitt circuit 1 to output two triangle waves having the same amplitude and whose phases are inverted. Since the output stage is composed of a differential amplification circuit, the circuit has low output impedance and is protected from wiring capacity and connected input capacity, and since integral operation is caused to be performed by the differential amplification circuit, the distortion in the waveform of the triangle waves can be prevented.
