  • Abstract
    The purpose of this paper is to investigate in detail the design of a current conveyor circuit suitable for implementation of low-voltage, low-power RC and crystal oscillators, and to show the design and performances of such oscillators. All circuits are based on the Fabre-Normand translinear conveyor. Circuits are biased in the subthreshold region whenever possible.
