Abstract
A high precision and externally synchronous relaxation oscillator with simple struc-
ture is proposed in this paper. The oscillator consists of the current circuits, a capacitor, two
comparators, a RS flip-flop and other components. In the current circuits positive and negative
temperature coefficient currents are obtained. With the current temperature compensation, a
low temperature current is used to charge and discharge the capacity. By optimizing the delay
of the comparators the oscillator has a good ability of control linearity In this method a high
precision oscillator is obtained. Based on 0.5 µm OKI technology library, HSPICE and Cadence
software is used to circuit simulation the simulation results show that the oscillator has stable
output frequency and external synchronization. Under the environment of typical applications in
the chip system, the frequency of the oscillation is 500.1 kHz, With the power supply temperature
changing from −40◦ C to 125◦ C, the frequency migration ranges from −0.3% to +1.3%.
