Oscillator circuit suppressing variation of oscillation frequency

Abstract

An oscillator circuit includes: oscillating transistors; a resonance circuit that includes varactor diodes each having a cathode to which a control voltage for controlling an oscillation frequency is applied and that is coupled between a collector and a base of each of the oscillating transistors; and a bias power supply that applies the bias voltages to the anodes of the varactor diodes. The bias voltages are given negative temperature characteristics, and a variation in the oscillation frequency caused by a change in the capacitance values of the varactor diodes due to a temperature variation is corrected by varying the bias voltages corresponding to the temperature variation.
