Abstract:
An oscillator circuit includes an oscillator output signal generating circuit configured to generate an oscillator output signal using an oscillator as a resonator, an amplitude detection circuit configured to detect the amplitude of the oscillator output signal and compare the detected amplitude with a threshold; and a boost circuit configured to boost the oscillator output signal according to the result of the comparison at the amplitude detection circuit. The amplitude detection circuit includes an absolute value circuit configured to obtain an absolute value signal of the oscillator output signal, a low-pass filter configured to convert the absolute value signal into a low-frequency signal, and a comparator configured to compare the low-frequency signal with the threshold.
