Abstract
The disclosed invention is intended to adjust the driving power of an oscillation circuit to be optimal with a simple circuit configuration. A chip includes an oscillation circuit, an amplifier, an effective value measuring circuit, and a control unit. The oscillation circuit includes an inverting amplifier and a resistor coupled in parallel to the inverting amplifier. The oscillation circuit in which the inverting amplifier is coupled to a crystal oscillator outside the chip generates an oscillation circuit by driving the crystal oscillator. The effective value measuring circuit measures an effective value of an oscillation signal produced by the oscillation circuit. The control unit controls the gain of the inverting amplifier so that the effective value will be equal to a target voltage.
