A balanced LC oscillator for providing differential oscillator output signals includes a pair of transistors the emitters of which are connected to a voltage reference source that provides a fixed voltage thereto. The base electrodes of each transistor is cross coupled to the collector of the other transistor. The LC tank circuit is connected between the collectors of the two transistors and current supply is provided thereto. Although the potential at the bases of the two transistors vary with respect to the oscillator signal appearing thereat, the emitters are held at a fixed potential to eliminate any common mode signal that may otherwise be generated if the potential at the emitters was permitted to vary.
