This paper presents an embedded RC oscillator which has temperature compensation circuits. The conventional RC oscillator has frequency deviation about 15%, which is caused by variation of resistors and the reference voltage of schmitt trigger from the temperature condition. In this paper, the proposed circuit use a CMOS bandgap reference having balanced current temperature coefficients as a triggering voltage of schmitt trigger. The constant current sources consist of current mirror circuit with the positive and negative temperature coefficient. The proposed circuit shows less 3% frequency deviation for variation of temperature, supply voltage and process parameters.

Since organic thin film transistor (OTFT) provides simple and low cost processes, its application to the OTFT display has been studied. We developed an RC oscillator using organic thin film transistor and inverters with bootstrapping transistors. Device parameters were optimized by the simulation and OTFT RC oscillators were fabricated. The oscillator frequency and its dependence on resistance and bias voltage were studied. The organic TFT is adequate for low cost and simple process integrated circuits. The frequency of oscillation was simulated and measured. It is acceptable for low-cost microelectronic device and flat panel displays.

The present work was mainly concerned with studying the operation of RC-phase shift oscillator based on MOSFET type 2N6660 under the influence of different temperature levels ranging from room temperature (25 ℃) up-to135 ℃ and gamma-irradiation up-to 3.5 kGy. In this concern, both the static (I-V) characteristic curves of MOSFET devices and the output signal of the proposed oscillator were recorded under ascending levels of both temperature and gamma-irradiation. From which, it is clearly shown that the drain current was decreased from 0.22 A, measured at 25 ℃, down to 0.163 A, at 135 ℃. On the other hand, its value was increased up-to 0.49 A, whenever the device was exposed to gamma-rays dose of 3.5 kGy. Considering RC-phase shift oscillator, the oscillation frequency and output pk-pk voltage were decreased whenever MOSFET device exposed to gamma radiation by ratio 54.9 and 91%, respectively. While, whenever MOSFET device exposed to temperature the previously mentioned parameters were shown to be decreased by ratio 2.07 and 46.2%.

In this paper, we have proposed the RC Wien-Bridge oscillator consisting of three oprational amplifiers in order to improve the frequency range, and the proposed oscillator has been realized a new SC Wien-Bridge oscillator for LSI realization by the forward Z transform method. The realized SC oscilltor has been affirmed that the frequency range has been improved more than Reddy's. Budak and Nay's by the analysis of pole loci as a frequency function f. Also, it has been confirmed that the designed SC oscillator has been satisfied substantially the oscillated condition by the open-loop measurements.

A sub-${\mu}$W CMOS Wien-Bridge oscillator for ultra low power (ULP) radio applications is presented. The Wien-Bridge oscillator is based on an non-inverting opamp amplifier with a closed-loop gain $1+R_2/R_1$ as a means of providing necessary loop gain. An additional RC network provides appropriate phase shift for satisfying the Barkhausen oscillation condition at the given frequency of 1/($2{\pi}RC$). In this design, we propose a novel loop gain control method based on a variable capacitor network instead of a rather conventional variable resistor network. Implemented in $0.18{\mu}m$ CMOS, the oscillator consumes only 560 nA at the oscillation frequency of 22 kHz.

A controller area network (CAN) receiver measures differential voltage on a bus to determine the bus level. Since 3.3V transceivers generate the same differential voltage as 5V transceivers (usually ${\geq}1.5V$), all transceivers on the bus (regardless of supply voltage) can decipher the message. In fact, the other transceivers cannot even determine or show that there is anything different about the differential voltage levels. A new CMOS RC oscillator insensitive supply voltage for clock generation in a CAN transceiver was fabricated and tested to compensate for this drawback in CAN communication. The system consists of a symmetrical circuit for voltage and current switches, two capacitors, two comparators, and an RS flip-flop. The operational principle is similar to a bistable multivibrator but the oscillation frequency can also be controlled via a bias current and reference voltage. The chip test experimental results show that oscillation frequency and power dissipation are 500 kHz and 5.48 mW, respectively at a supply voltage of 3.3 V. The chip, chip area is $0.021mm^2$, is fabricated with $0.18{\mu}m$ CMOS technology from SK hynix.

An RC oscillator using amorphous silicon thin film transistors was developed. The oscillation frequency and its dependence on resistance and bias voltage were studied. The frequency was controlled by adjusting the feedback resistance of the oscillator. The highest measured frequency of the oscillator was around 140 kHz, which is acceptable for low-end radio frequency identification (RFID). Since a low-end RFID circuit needs low cost and a simple process, an amorphous silicon oscillator is suitable.

Two kinds of simple active oscillators are proposed and analyzed assuming that operational amplifier has two-poles frequency characteristics. The first circuit is composed of one operational amplifier, one resistor and one grounded capacitor. The second oscillator is realized with one operational amplifier and three resitors. Proposed oscillators have the low sensitivity of the oscillation frequency for little variations of the passive element values. By the experimental results obtained with Op-Amp. ${\mu}A741$, the simple oscillators can be useful for the frequency range $1.25 KHz{\leq}f_{01}{\leq}40KHz$ for the active-RC type or $45.45 KHz{\leq}f_{02}{\leq}400KHz$ for the active-R oscillator, and it is shown to transform the active-R oscillator circuit into the voltage controlled type. Therefore, two kinds of oscillator circuit are attractive for the IC realization, because they have one operational amplifier, one resistor and one grounded capacitor, or three resistors.

A novel phase interpolator (PI) based linear model of multipath ring oscillator (MPRO) is described in this paper. By modeling each delay cell as an ideal summer followed by a single pole RC filter, the oscillation frequency is derived for a 4-stage differential MPRO. It is analytically proved that the oscillation frequency increases with the growth of the forwarding factor ${\alpha}$, which is also confirmed quantitatively through simulation. Based on the proposed model, it is shown that the power to frequency ratio keeps constant as the speed increases. Running at the same speed, a 4-stage MPRO can outperform the corresponding single-stage ring oscillator (SPRO) with 27% power saving, making MPRO with a large forwarding factor ${\alpha}$ an attractive option for lower power applications.
