ABSTRACT:
In the case of a voltage-controlled LC oscillator (4), the effects of supply voltage fluctuations are reduced according to the invention, due to the fact that a stabilized voltage source (3) is assigned to the LC oscillator (4), which supplies the LC oscillator (4) with a stabilized voltage. This in particular is the case if the LC oscillator (4) is integrated together with other circuit components in a semiconductor and heavy noise or strong disturbances occur on supply voltage lines (1, 2). Advantageously, the stabilized voltage source (3) is formed by an operational amplifier (6), after which a driver transistor (5) is positioned, whereby the operational amplifier is subjected to a reference voltage (7).
