Differing from conventional oscillator circuit does not include temperature compensation function, the present invention particularly constitutes a gain stage, a current mirror unit, a clamping current supplying unit, a noise inhibiting unit, a compensation unit, and a reference signal generating unit to a novel oscillator circuit having temperature compensation function. A variety of experimental data have proved that, based on the normal operation of the compensation unit and the reference signal generating unit, the oscillator frequency of the oscillator circuit of the present invention almost be kept at same level even if the ambient temperature continuously increases. Therefore, because the frequency drift due to temperature variation would not occur in the oscillator circuit of the present invention, the novel oscillator circuit is potential oscillator to replace the conventional oscillators applied in analog-to-digital convertors or time-to-digital convertors.
