Abstract: An oscillator includes at least one oscillator transistor having collector, emitter and base leads, a controllable current source connected between the emitter lead of the at least one oscillator transistor and a supply potential, and a frequency-determining element, such as an oscillating circuit, connected at least to the base or collector lead of the at least one oscillator transistor. A method for controlling the amplitude of the output signal of the oscillator includes supplying a direct voltage variation at the emitter lead of the at least one oscillator transistor resulting from a change in amplitude of a signal applied to the base lead of the at least one oscillator transistor as a controlled variable for the current of the controllable current source. The oscillator may also include a control amplifier. The emitter lead of the at least one oscillator transistor is connected to one input of the control amplifier and the other input of the control amplifier is connected to a reference potential. The reference potential is in a fixed relationship with a direct signal component of a signal present at the base lead of the at least one oscillator transistor. The current of the controllable current source is adjusted as a function of an output variable at the control amplifier.

Abstract: Technologies are generally described for quadrature-based injection-locking of ring oscillators. In some examples, an external signal may be injected into a ring oscillator. Phase signals may be measured from within the ring oscillator and used to determine a mean quadrature error (MQE) that characterizes the difference in frequency between the external signal and the ring oscillator's natural frequency. A control signal may then be generated from the MQE and used to adjust the ring oscillator natural frequency to reduce the difference between the ring oscillator natural frequency and the external signal.

Abstract: According to one embodiment, a phase locked loop (PLL) circuit includes an application unit, a correlator, an integrator and a power supply noise canceller. The application unit applies the test signal to a power supply voltage. The correlator extracts a frequency error signal as a monitor signal and calculates a correlation value for the test signal and the monitor signal to generate a correlation signal. The integrator integrates the correlation signal to generate an integral signal. The power supply noise canceller provides a cancellation gain corresponding to the integral signal to the power supply voltage to which the test signal is applied, to generate a control signal.
