  • Amplitude calibrated oscillator device
    Patent number: 10840926
    Abstract: An example oscillator device comprises (i) an oscillation circuit arranged for generating and outputting an oscillation signal and comprising an active circuit to ensure oscillation is maintained, (ii) a voltage-to-current conversion replica circuit of the active circuit arranged for receiving the oscillation signal and for outputting a current proportional to the oscillation signal, (iii) biasing means arranged to generate a constant bias current to activate the oscillation circuit, and (iv) subtraction means for subtracting the current proportional to the oscillation signal from the bias current, thereby obtaining a resulting current which can be used for adapting the oscillation signal's amplitude.
