Abstract: A voltage controlled oscillator includes an oscillator having at least one first capacitor. The oscillator receives first and second input voltages and charges the first capacitor with a first current corresponding to the first input voltage. The oscillator oscillates at a frequency corresponding to the first and second input voltages. To remove the adverse influence on the oscillating frequency by the change of process parameters caused in the stage of manufacturing the voltage controlled oscillators, a second capacitor is charged for a predetermined period by a current corresponding to the first voltage. After the charging of the second capacitor ends, a sample/hold circuit samples and holds the charged voltage across the second capacitor. An operational amplifier receives, at its positive input terminal, the output voltage of the sample/hold circuit, and, at its negative input terminal, the reference voltage.
