Abstract

A voltage-controlled oscillator comprises a level converting circuit, an amplitude controller, a voltage-controlled oscillation section having differential delay cells connected in a ring form, and an output level converting circuit. The level converting circuit has limiters which respectively limit a maximum value and a minimum value of a control current. Those limiters permit only a region where the voltage-controlled oscillation section properly performs its oscillating operation to be used.
