Abstract
This disclosure relates to multi-phase oscillators for electronic systems. An example system includes multiple level translator circuits and a ring oscillator circuit that includes multiple outputs. Each level translator circuit includes a first input transistor, a second input transistor, and an output. The ring oscillator circuit includes multiple outputs, and each output of the ring oscillator has a different phase. An output of the ring oscillator is coupled to only one input transistor of a level translator circuit, and the other input transistor of the level translator circuit is coupled to an output of another level translator circuit.
