    Abstract: Low voltage crystal oscillator having native NMOS transistors used for coupling/decoupling to/from GPIO. The native NMOS transistors function properly at a low supply voltage when on (low resistance) and a high supply voltage when off (high resistance). Oscillator Gm driver bias resistors are repurposed to degenerate the native NMOS transistors when they are off, thereby reducing the leakage current thereof (oscillator circuit decoupled from GPIO nodes). This ensures compliance with the CMOS IIH leakage current specification during an external clock (EC) mode at a high supply voltage.

    Abstract: An oscillation circuit includes an amplification circuit that causes a resonator to oscillate, and a variable capacitance circuit whose capacitance value is controlled on the basis of a control voltage. The variable capacitance circuit includes a first variable capacitive element in which an inflection point voltage in a change characteristic of a capacitance value for the control voltage is a first voltage, and a second variable capacitive element in which an inflection point voltage in a change characteristic of a capacitance value for the control voltage is a second voltage which is different from the first voltage. A capacitance value of the first variable capacitive element when the control voltage is the first voltage is different from a capacitance value of the second variable capacitive element when the control voltage is the second voltage.

    Abstract: A circuit device includes an oscillation circuit, a clock signal output circuit that outputs a clock signal based on an output signal from the oscillation circuit, and an output control circuit. The output control circuit includes a counter circuit that performs a counting process on the basis of the output signal from the oscillation circuit, and a count enable signal generation circuit that outputs a count enable signal for the counter circuit. The counter circuit starts the counting process when the count enable signal becomes active, and outputs an output enable signal for the clock signal to the clock signal output circuit on the basis of a result of the counting process.

    Abstract: A circuit device includes a selector to which first to n-th voltages are input, an A/D converter circuit to which output voltages of the selector are input as input voltages, and first to n-th quantization error hold circuits that hold charges corresponding to quantization errors in A/D conversion of the first to n-th voltages. The A/D converter circuit performs A/D conversion of an input voltage by a successive approximation operation using a charge redistribution type D/A converter circuit and performs k-th A/D conversion on an i-th voltage by using a charge held in an i-th quantization error hold circuit in (k−1)th A/D conversion of the i-th voltage to output A/D conversion result data DOUT in which the quantization error is noise-shaped.
