Abstract
An oscillator having a multiplicity of resonant structures parallel coupled to form a fault tolerant resonator in the feedback circuit of the oscillator. This fault tolerant resonator permits the oscillator to operate in a near fault free manner after the failure of one or more of the resonant structures.
