  • Abstract
    In order to reduce the power consumption of a crystal oscillator (XO), an automatic self power gating (ASPG) and a multistage inverter for a negative resistance (MINR) are proposed. By combining ASPG and MINR, the measured power of a 39-MHz XO in 40-nm CMOS decreases by 93% from 139μW to 9.2μW, which is the lowest power in the published XO´s at 0.7V.
