Abstract
An oscillation circuit uses a SAW oscillator and is able to control the oscillation frequency easily and correct the temperature characteristic of the oscillator so that an oscillation signal with high temperature stability can be generated. A clock signal CLK having a prescribed frequency difference from the ideal oscillation frequency is generated by the SAW oscillator Register is driven by a frequency-divided clock signal obtained by dividing the frequency of the clock signal at a predetermined frequency division rate. In-phase signal S and quadrature signal S generated corresponding to the data Da that is incremented by a prescribed addition value F every period of the frequency-divided clock signal are output, and the clock signal is IQ-modulated on the basis of these signals. The frequency error of clock signal CLK can be corrected, and an output signal S having near ideal oscillation frequency can be obtained.
