ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus are provided for translating small voltage continuous signals into large full supply signals to generate a clock signal. At least one oscillator input signal is applied to a first amplifier stage for generating an amplified voltage output signal. A first inverter is coupled to the first amplifier stage. A second inverter is coupled to the first inverter. An AC coupling capacitor couples the amplified voltage output signal to the first inverter input, and a feedback resistor is connected between the output and input of the first inverter.
