Abstract

In this work, a current tunable current-mode multiphase sinusoidal oscillator (MSO) employing current differencing transconductance amplifier (CDTA)-based first-order allpass sections is presented. The proposed MSO circuit, which uses only two CDTAs and one virtually grounded capacitor for each phase, can generate arbitrary 2n2n-phase current-output signals (n=2,3,4,…)(n=2,3,4,…) equally spaced in phase, all at high output impedance terminals. The oscillation condition and the oscillation frequency can be controlled electronically and independently by adjusting the bias current of the CDTA. The oscillator has low-sensitivity performance. Simulation results are also given to verify the functionality of the proposed oscillator.
