Abstract:
Provided is a CR oscillator circuit that achieves a small occupied area and good oscillation frequency accuracy while having small current consumption. The CR oscillator circuit includes: a reference voltage circuit configured to switch and output a reference voltage; a first constant current source configured to charge a capacitor; a second constant current source configured to discharge the capacitor; a voltage comparator configured to compare voltages of the reference voltage circuit and the capacitor; and a logic circuit. The logic circuit is configured to switch between the reference voltage circuit and the constant current source simultaneously in response to an output signal of the voltage comparator.
