  • Abstract
    In this work, measurements of the two versions of the 12 nA Low Frequency Oscillator is presented. The circuit designed in a standard 0.6 μm MOS technology with most of the transistors operating in weak inversion, includes self-bias current and voltage references, and can be powered with a wide range supply voltage from 1.2 to 5.0 V. The oscillator is intended as part of the next generation of portable or autonomous devices, powered by microbatteries or energy harvesting systems.
