Abstract
A reconfigurable crystal oscillator and a method for reconfiguring a crystal oscillator are provided. The reconfigurable crystal oscillator includes a transconductance circuit, a feedback resistor, a crystal tank, an input-end capacitor and an output-end capacitor. Both of the feedback resistor and the crystal tank are coupled between an input terminal and an output terminal of the transconductance circuit. The input-end capacitor is coupled to the input terminal of the transconductance circuit, and the output-end capacitor is coupled to the output terminal of the transconductance circuit. In particular, the transconductance circuit is configured to provide a transconductance, and when an operation mode of the reconfigurable crystal oscillator is switched, an input-end capacitance of the input-end capacitor and an output-end capacitance of the output-end capacitor are switched, respectively.
