US Patent 11942952 Low-noise oscillator amplitude regulator

An electronic device comprises a first feedback circuit operatively connected to an amplitude detector and a first control input of an oscillator. The first feedback circuit is configured to control an amplitude of an output of the oscillator by continuously applying a first control signal to the first control input in response to an amplitude detected by the amplitude detector. The electronic device further comprises a second feedback circuit operatively connected to the amplitude detector and a second control input of the oscillator. The second feedback circuit is configured to modify one or more amplitude regulating parameters of the oscillator by providing a second control signal in response to the amplitude being beyond an upper or lower amplitude threshold, and refrain from modifying the one or more amplitude regulating parameters when the amplitude is within the upper and lower amplitude thresholds.
