Abstract

See full text

Presented is a low supply voltage oscillator circuit having at least one capacitor to be controlled, connected between first and second voltage references, and a circuit for charging and discharging the capacitor to be controlled. The oscillator circuit also includes at least first and second stages having symmetrical structures in a mirror-image configuration and being connected between the first voltage reference and the second voltage reference and connected together through a memory element. The oscillator circuit also includes respective primary switches for alternately charging the capacitors in a controlled fashion.
