<p>An initial phase control for an oscillator (100) such as a different ring voltage-controlled oscillator is disclosed. The initial phase control generally comprises a current source circuit coupled to a first node of the delay cell and a current provider. The current source circuit and current provider are preferably selectively and synchronously in an on or off state such that when the current source circuit and current provider are in an on state, the current source circuit draws a current through the first node of the delay cell and the current provider provides current through a second node of the delay cell. A method for controlling a delay cell and an initial phase control for a differential ring oscillator having a plurality of delay cells in a ring configuration are also disclosed.</p> |
