A voltage controlled oscillator comprising: a ring of inverters comprised of an odd number of serially connected CMOS inverter stages, the inverter stages being connected between first and second oppositely poled power leads, a MOSFET having a source-drain circuit connected between one of the power leads and a first power rail, the other power lead being connected to a second power rail, apparatus for operating the MOSFET in saturation, and apparatus for applying a control voltage to the gate of the MOSFET, referenced to the second power lead, whereby the MOSFET operates as a nonlinear current conduction device having a characteristic such as to linearize the voltage-frequency characteristic of the combined MOSFET - ring oscillator combination.

Oscillateur commandé par tension, comprenant : un anneau d'inverseurs regroupant un nombre impair d'étages d'inverseur CMOS montés en série et connectés entre un premier et un deuxième conducteurs d'alimentation de pôles opposés, un MOSFET ayant un circuit source-drain connecté entre un des conducteurs d'alimentation et un premier bus d'alimentation, l'autre conducteur étant connecté à un deuxième bus d'alimentation, un dispositif pour exploiter le MOSFET à l'état de saturation, et un dispositif pour appliquer une tension de commande à la grille du MOSFET, référencée au deuxième conducteur d'alimentation, le MOSFET fonctionnant ainsi comme un dispositif de conduction de courant non linéaire dont une caractéristique lui permet de linéariser la caractéristique tension-fréquence de l'ensemble combiné MOSFET - oscillateur en anneau.
