ABSTRACT:
An oscillator includes a comparison voltage generating circuit, a comparing circuit and a clock switching circuit. The comparison voltage generating circuit is driven by a power source voltage, and generates comparison voltages that change in response to clock signals which have a frequency that varies in inverse proportion to the power source voltage and a first reference voltage. The comparing circuit compares levels of the comparison voltages to a second reference voltage and outputs logic signals having logic levels as a result of the comparison. The clock switching circuit outputs the clock signals which have a frequency that varies in inverse proportion to the power source voltage, in response to the logic signals.
