Abstract
An inverting amplifier useful in an oscillator circuit includes complementary serially connected first and second metal-oxide-semiconductor field effort transistor (MOSFETS) and first and second resistors, two capacitors, a first feedback circuit having two MOSFETS in series with a third resistor and a second feedback circuit having two MOSFETS and a fourth resistor in series. Each feedback circuit provides a feed back path from the drain of one of the output transistors to the gate thereof. The resistors are polysilicon type resistors and have a negative thermal coefficient. The amplifier has a very stable output signal amplitude which is essentially independent of integrated circuit manufacturing processing variations and operating temperature variations within useful ranges.
