    摘要: PROBLEM: To generate a self-oscillation in a stable manner and at a low cost in a self-oscillating radio frequency oscillation circuit for high-power applications used for plasma generation in an ICP emission spectrometer or for other purposes.SOLUTION: A secondary winding 38 of a starting transformer is arranged in an LC resonance circuit 30 including an induction coil 9, capacitor 36 and other elements. A starter 6, e.g. a Clapp oscillator circuit, is connected to a primary winding 5 magnetically coupled with the winding 38. A radio-frequency current is induced in the LC resonance circuit 30 through the primary and secondary windings 5 and 38 by energizing the starter 6 for a certain period of time in a starting phase. As a result, electric current flows through the secondary windings 11, 14, 17 and 20 in a full-bridge drive circuit 10 which are magnetically coupled with primary windings 32, 33, 34 and 35, respectively, whereby voltage is developed between the gate and source of MOSFETs 13, 16, 19 and 22, causing these MOSFETs 13, 16, 19 and 22 to begin an ON/OFF operation, whereby the self-oscillation is started.

    摘要: A calibrated crystal warm-up method that can include determining the number of clock cycles of a crystal clock reference signal from a crystal oscillator occur during a single clock cycle of a low-power oscillator. Further, the determination can occur when the crystal oscillator is warmed up. The method can also include comparing a number of clock cycles of the crystal clock reference signal with a previously determined number of clock cycles of the crystal clock reference signal to indicate whether the crystal oscillator is warmed up. Further, the method can include counting the number of clock cycles of a low-power clock reference signal have occurred up until the time it has been determined that the crystal oscillator has been warmed up.

    摘要: This invention is directed to achieve the oscillator circuit with a shorter oscillation stabilizing period and a lower consumption of the electric current. The oscillator circuit 10 has the amplifier circuit (inverter circuit 11), and the clock signal CLK is outputted from the output terminal of the inverter circuit 11. The inverter circuit 11 is configured from the first inverter 12 and the second inverter 13. The inverter circuit 11 is connected to the control circuit 30 and the control signal Ctrl controls the driving capacity of the inverter circuit 11. For example, high level control signals Ctrl 1 (H) and Ctrl 2 (H) are supplied to the first and the second inverters 12, 13 for a certain period of time right after the oscillator circuit 10 starts its operation until the oscillation is stabilized, operating both inverters. Then, either the first inverter 12 or the second inverter 13 continues its operation and the other inverter stops the operation.
