Abstract
Oscillator circuits are disclosed herein. An embodiment of an oscillator circuit includes a first bias circuit and a second bias circuit. An oscillator first connection terminal is coupled to a node, wherein the node is coupled to the first bias circuit and the second bias circuit. An oscillator second connection terminal connected to the second bias circuit. An increase in the oscillation amplitude of the oscillator increases the current in the second bias circuit and causes a reduction in the bias current in the first bias circuit.
