Abstract
A one-pin crystal oscillator 20 is designed to be used as a clock generator for digital integrated circuits. Unlike the prior art, this oscillator requires only one package pin to connect the crystal as opposed to the usual two pin requirement and, except for the crystal, can be completely fabricated on a chip so as to require no other external components.
