32KHz MEMS-Based Oscillator for Low-Power Applications

Kenneth R. Cioffi, Wan-Thai Hsu

Abstract:	A non-quartz based high stability 32KHz oscillator for real time clock applications using Si MEMS technology is demonstrated. This oscillator achieves a power consumption of less than 1µW which is similar to quartz-based products. This oscillator has been realized in a 0.35uM CMOS process.
