Abstract

An oscillator circuit includes a first current generator circuit that generates a current complementary to absolute temperature and a second current generator that generates a current proportional to absolute temperature. A temperature slope control circuit adjusts slopes of the current complementary to absolute temperature and the current proportional to absolute temperature in a complementary fashion and adds the current complementary to absolute temperature to the current proportional to absolute temperature after slope control to produce a temperature independent current. A current control circuit adjusts magnitude of the temperature independent current to produce a magnitude adjusted temperature independent current. A current controlled oscillator generates an output signal as a function of the magnitude adjusted temperature independent current.
