  • Multi-stage oscillator with current voltage converters
    Patent number: 10554199
    Abstract: A current-mode, multi-stage oscillator converts an oscillating current to an oscillating voltage using one or more current voltage converters on one or more of the output stages of the multi-stage oscillator. The use of current voltage convertors transforms the low output swing (e.g., transistor threshold limited) of the oscillator into a rail-to-rail voltage oscillation with minimal jitter and operational stability over a wide temperature range.
    Type: Grant
