Abstract
According to various embodiments, there is provided a method for generating a reference clock signal, the method including discharging a capacitive element to a discharged state, when a reset signal has a predetermined reset state; charging the capacitive element from the discharged state to a first voltage, when a charge signal has a predetermined charge state; comparing the first voltage to a zero voltage, when a compare signal has a predetermined compare state; generating a second voltage based on the comparing of the first voltage to the zero voltage; generating a clock signal based on the second voltage, using an oscillator; and generating each of the reset signal, the charge signal and the compare signal, based on the clock signal.
