A 0.5 V Sub-Threshold CMOS Current-Controlled Ring Oscillator for IoT and Implantable Devices

A current-controlled CMOS ring oscillator topology, which exploits the bulk voltages of the inverter stages as control terminals to tune the oscillation frequency, is proposed and analyzed. The solution can be adopted in sub-1 V applications, as it exploits MOSFETS in the subthreshold regime. Oscill...
