Abstract :
Presents a new class of current-mode oscillators using several representative log-domain circuits both as the frequency and the gain controlling elements in electronically tunable oscillators, where the resulting oscillators enjoy the attractive properties of low supply voltages, high oscillation frequencies, wide tunable ranges and low distortion at large oscillation current amplitudes
