Abstract
This thesis describes the design, implementation, and characterization of integrated RC frequency references. The primary focus of the work is a frequency-locked loop (FLL) architecture, realized in standard CMOS, that digitizes the phase shift of an integrated RC filter, processes the results in the digital domain, and uses it to control an output frequency to maintain its accuracy over temperature variations.....
