Abstract

An oscillator circuit is provided. A first and a second cycle generating units, and a first and a second duty generating units are included. An SR latch, receiving outputs the first and second cycle generating units. In the SR latch, an output is provided to the first cycle generating unit and the third duty generating, and a contemporary output is provided to the second cycle generating unit and the second duty generating unit. A logic circuit receives the outputs of the first and the second duty generating units and the output and the contemporary output of the SR latch to generate a clock signal. The first and the second cycle generating units are respectively operated to provide the even and odd cycle times of the clock signal. The first and the second duty generating units are respectively operated to provide the even and odd duties of the clock signal.
