Abstract
An aspect of the present disclosure concerns an oscillator circuit including a driver circuit that includes a first amplifier and a current detector where the first amplifier produces an oscillation voltage signal, where the current detector detects an oscillation current signal and produces a drive voltage signal, and where the oscillation current signal corresponds to difference in voltage between the oscillation voltage signal and the drive voltage signal; a feedback circuit that includes a second amplifier receiving the oscillation voltage signal and the drive voltage signal, to produce a feedback voltage signal to the driver circuit; and an oscillator that oscillates at a frequency determined in accordance with the drive voltage signal.
