A relaxation oscillator for generating an oscillator output signal having a predetermined frequency. The relaxation oscillator includes an interleaved charge pump for providing a restoring charge to an integrator in response to at least one charge pump control signal. The relaxation oscillator further includes an integrator having an integrator input connected to the current summing node. The integrator is adapted to produce an integrator output signal having the predetermined frequency at an integrator output. A comparator having an input connected to the integrator output is adapted to generate the oscillator output signal having the predetermined frequency in response to the integrator output signal.

Precision relaxation oscillator without comparator delay errors

A device for converting wind energy into electrical energy for powering a vehicle, the device including a wind turbine positioned on the vehicle and a generator positioned within the vehicle and connected between the wind turbine and systems of the vehicle. When the vehicle is in motion, wind impinges on the wind turbine and causes the wind turbine to rotate. The generator converts rotational energy of the wind turbine into electrical energy. The electrical energy is provided to power the systems of the vehicle and the batteries of the vehicle are recharged.
