Abstract :
A technique for generating accurate anti-phase signals is presented. A monolithic oscillator with dual outputs that are mutually locked in anti-phase has been realised. This new oscillator demonstrates significant potential in balanced circuits like mixers, multipliers and modulators where circuit performance relies on the precise generation of balanced signals
