れている。 By the way, when converting such an oscillation circuit into an IC, it is necessary to leave the tank circuit T etc. for external connection.
Although it will be implemented as an IC, it is desirable to use junction capacitors as the dividing capacitors C 1 and C 2 in order to save the chip area as much as possible. In this case, the base-emitter capacitance or base-collector capacitance of a transistor is generally used as the junction capacitance.

て発振作用が妨げられるという問題があつた。 However, in such an IC structure, it is necessary to form the divided capacitors C 1 and C 2 independently, which is disadvantageous in terms of chip area.
There was a problem in that the oscillation effect was hindered by the (parasitic) junction capacitance incidentally formed between the N-type region of the capacitor C2 portion and the P-type substrate.

The object of the present invention is to provide an extremely good oscillation circuit that can be unaffected by potential fluctuations.
以下図面を参照してこの発明の実施例につき詳

タが電源端子Vccに接続される。 That is, as shown in FIG. 4, which is a basic example, the transistor Q11 has its collector connected to the power supply terminal Vcc, its emitter connected to the output terminal OUT, and connected to the reference potential point via the resistor R11 . The base is connected to the bias voltage terminal VB via a resistor R12 . Further, the multi-emitter type equivalent capacitor transistor Q12 has a capacitor C11 between the base and the collector, and a capacitor C12 between the base and the emitter, and the base and emitter are the emitter and the emitter of the transistor Q11 , respectively. The base is connected correspondingly, and the collector is connected to the power supply terminal Vcc.
なお、前記トランジスタQ11のベースは外付け

また、第6図は以上のようにしてIC化を図つた
発振回路全体の等価回路を示している。 Figure 5 shows the mounting structure of the equivalent transistor Q 12, which becomes the transistor Q 11 and capacitors C 11 and C 12 , when the oscillation circuit is implemented as an IC without the external parts. There is.
Further, FIG. 6 shows an equivalent circuit of the entire oscillation circuit which has been implemented as an IC as described above.

される寄生容量C12′は、電源Vccラインと基準電
位点となる接地間に介挿されることになるので、
回路の発振動作に何んら悪影響を与えないで済ま
せることができるという利点がある。 As is clear from the mounting structure and equivalent circuit, capacitors C 11 and C 12 are formed using the base-collector capacitance and base-emitter capacitance of the equivalent transistor Q 12 , so they are identical. Since it can be formed in a portion, it is advantageous in that the chip area can be reduced accordingly. In addition, the parasitic capacitance C 12 ' formed between the N-type region of the capacitor C 12 part and the P-type substrate is inserted between the power supply Vcc line and the ground, which is the reference potential point.
This has the advantage of not having any adverse effect on the oscillation operation of the circuit.
加えて、この寄生容量C12′は電源Vccラインに
乗るリツプル分を除去し得るようないわゆるバイ
パスコンデンサとして機能するという利点もあ
る。 In addition, this parasitic capacitance C 12 ' has the advantage of functioning as a so-called bypass capacitor that can remove ripples on the power supply Vcc line.

電位変動の影響をあまり受けないで発振周波数の
安定化に寄与することができる。 In addition, in the above, by connecting the bias voltage terminal VB to, for example, the power supply terminal Vcc and making the base potential of the transistor Q 11 the same potential as the power supply potential, the capacitors C 11 and C 12 are both reverse biased with a voltage of about 0.7V. will be done. Thereby, it is possible to contribute to stabilizing the oscillation frequency without being affected much by fluctuations in the power supply potential.

である。 However, in reality, when the power supply potential fluctuates, the reverse bias voltage on the capacitor C 11 side in particular fluctuates, causing the capacitance of the capacitor C 11 to change, and as a result, the drift of the oscillation frequency tends to increase.

The transistor Q13 has a base connected to the connection point between R13 and the diode D12 , a collector connected to the emitter of the transistor Q11 , and an emitter connected to the reference potential point via the resistor R14 . be. Note that the bias voltage terminal VB is the power supply terminal.
The connection to Vcc so that the operating current of the entire circuit is kept constant is the same as described above.

向上に寄与し得るものである。 Therefore, in this oscillation circuit using a constant current circuit IS, even if the power supply potential fluctuates, the capacitor
Since the reverse bias voltage (approximately 0.7V) on the C11 side can be held constant, it can prevent the oscillation frequency drift from increasing and contribute to improving stability as much as possible. be.

題が生じないようにすることが可能となる。 Moreover, not only that, but also the reverse bias voltage values of capacitors C 11 and C 12 are set to the same potential (approximately
0.7V), so the equivalent transistor Q12
Another advantage is that it is possible to prevent a potential difference from occurring between the collector and emitter of the device, thereby preventing undesirable problems such as leakage. In particular, problems such as leakage occur when the chip area of the equivalent transistor Q 12 is increased in order to increase the capacitance of capacitors C 11 and C 12 , but even in such cases, the above-mentioned countermeasures can be taken. This makes it possible to prevent any problems from occurring.

It becomes possible to provide an extremely good oscillation circuit that can be prevented from being affected.
